Saturday evening Lindee & family had us out to their house for supper, so we could get a report on her & Mallory’s trip to Paris. Such a special evening. I got this picture of Mallory giving her other grandmother Emmy a preview before the real program began :-).
After we ate Mal started showing us pictures, and then realized she could put them up on their TV so we could all see them at once. What an amazing week in Paris she & Lindee had. This picture is from the catacombs, once of the places Lindee most wanted to visit. Mallory was less excited but the pictures were incredible. This is a well they built at some point in time in the catacombs to do experiments on fish, but apparently that didn’t last long. The catacombs were created when all of the limestone was quarried out from underneath the city of Paris. The graves are all above ground there – much like New Orleans – and when they got full, they started moving the bones into all of those tunnels in the old limestone quarries. Those are bones stacked up, and the bigger pieces are the skulls. Very interesting.
