Jardin du Luxembourg

I spent the afternoon today in the Jardin du Luxembourg, which has
cheerful blossoms and a fountain pond where small kids sail toy boats.
Their parents can rent one for a couple of euros, and the child uses a
stick to push it out to sea, where the wind carries it along.

I also caught two high school bands playing concerts by a stage shaded
by scattered trees. A least one seemed to be from the U.S. They played
"Saints Go Marching In," among others.

It was, though, a little disconcerting to hear strains of "A Whole New
World" from Disney's "Aladdin"!
