Paris spectacular mansion on Francs Borges

This amazing mansion on Francs Borges is now a school.

The Edith Piaf museum. A contribution run apartment that she lived in for a year, according to the proprietor, which is stuffed full of all kinds of memorobilia of her, including dresses she performed in. She was tiny.
Pere LaChaise cemetery and yes we went to Jim Morrison's grave, covered with cigarettes. Chopin's was much more lovely. The thing that surprised me was the terrible state of disrepair some of the tombs were in. I'd always thought that if someone'd bought their plot and paid for it that part of those dues would be upkeep. Guess not. This one wasn't nearly in the worst condition it was just weird and eerie to be able to look inside the broken tomb and see the bare ground inside and the garbage that had accumulated inside it.
These were in better shape.
