SOMETHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT


What we adore about France is that every city and town has something to write home about. This 19th-century two-tiered iron fountain on the Place St.-Jean in Melun is just one example. We were simply passing through the town on our way to visit the Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte when we came upon this lovely Renaissance-inspired surprise. The three statues represent the Seine, the Marne, and the Yonne rivers.

quoi écrire:  something to write home about
