Peter's Paris: French trees are square...

French trees are square...

Some photos from the Tuileries Gardens, taken the only real nice and sunny day we had some two weeks ago. Yes, French park trees seem to be square.

(Another preprogrammed post, while I’m away in the south, looking for sun.)

I'm glad they trim those trees that way... it helps them look more interesting.
Nothing like those trees in my little corner of South American paradise. So lush...so full of parakeets breakfasting on pindo palm fruits, so early in the morning.
