Today is family reunion part 2 (I'll share all of the stories and pictures in a future post). Many of my family members insist on me visiting so and so's grave. "Will you please take a picture of Morrison's grave for me?" has been the most popular.
I've also been directed to see Chopin, Eiffel, Rin Tin Tin (yeah.. the dog), Wilde, and many many more. I decided to dedicate July 1 to "Famous Dead People Buried in Paris." If you, dear readers, would like me to take a picture of or with your favorite dead celebrity, I'll be happy to oblige. Here's the list of dignitaries with whom I'll be spending my day:
Marie Curie
Rin Tin Tin
Gertrude Stein
Moliere
Oscar Wilde
Edith Pilaf
Simone de Beauvoir
Marcel Marceau
Frederic Chopin
Louis Braille
Victor Hugo
Gustave Eiffel
Jim Morrison
Napoleon Bonaparte
Jean Baptiste Morin
feel free to add to this list as you wish! Tell me who and where to find them.

Ah yes . . . finding the graves. The maps provided are nice, but not really functional. What I noticed the most were the many, many cats that hang around. A chance for some really cool photo ops!
