It will if she uses it to sit in the South African sun and drink beer! Julienne should use sunscreen...
...and when we meet her we can say, "Bonjour, ma petite frite."

Another place to sit and have fries and a beer, or coffee and a pain au chocolat. Keep sitting!

Sitting too long makes my back hurt. So, most of us have been in a city where there's a "mascot" of some sort that artists will decorate and place in different parts of the city. Show me what you've spotted and where. I'll start it in case my explanation wasn't too good. This giraffe is in Edinburgh.

x-posted elsewhere several weeks back. Painted pianos were all around Denver in 2013, but who knows if they're still there.



Keep them coming

As you leave Sandton city and enter Johannesburg, (north/sout direction) this is on one of the main routes. I've added the words myself, a colloquial joke about Johannesburgers.


If anyone else had more of the same. Go for it

Well, I thought we would have had more funky art "mascots" from around the world. Here's one more from Edinburgh. Show me a domed building.

Domed buildings were and remain popular in both Orthodox Christian and Moslem architecture. I think this is the Blue Mosque.


Another building with a dome, and a view from inside/below the dome is OK

I think this is the oldest of the many in Rome - the Pantheon. Keep with Domes.
