Like every year the French wood industry goes on a promotion tour and brings a whole forest to the Parisians. It's planted at place du Palais Royal until September 22nd and there are no less than 20 000 (small) trees on display (well, so they say... I did not count them all myself!). I'm not so much a tree person, but I thought that their idea of building a wood ET was kind of funny. So here you go... Enjoy! (This one cannot be visited though...)

Funny to see an ET made of wood!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting!
ReplyDeleteThank you for bringing it at home (the photo I mean) !
I'm pretty sure that even I could climb to the top of that ET very easily. Wonder if anyone has been tempted to do it. :~}
ReplyDeleteDear Eric
ReplyDeleteI was in Paris last week , and i did visit the Palais Royal. One of the guys was also making a barrel , i believe for wines. I could not visit the Iron Lady , so this one cheered me up.
