I moved to France in early 1993, and a couple of months later, my parents came to visit. We went to the Eiffel Tower of course, and saw the lovely views from each side. Our view of the Ecole Militaire (which appears at the end of the gardens in the above photo), however, was marred by a large cock and balls etched into the snow on the ground. I'm guessing that this is a tradition among the students in the Ecole Militaire, and it makes me smile to know that it's still happening. (Later that year, I looked at my parents' photo album. There were views from three sides of the Eiffel Tower.) Too funny. I moved to France in early 1993, and a couple of months later, my parents came to visit.

I see a landing strip, and maybe two parking spots, or maybe those are for VTOL craft. Perhaps our very bodies, our very DNA, hold the secret to landing and parking alien spaceships!
