La dame bariolée


In November, I was showing you the statue of a very colourful gent. Well, I'm pleased to announce that the gent has got a lady, I have now found them together, they are guardians of the entrance of a restaurant and tea shop in a little courtyard off the rue des deux portes!

En novembre, je vous montrais la statue d'un gentilhomme bariolé. Eh bien ce brave homme a une femme, que j'ai découverte récemment ! Ils gardent tous les deux l'entrée d'un restaurant-salon de thé dans une cour de la rue des deux portes !

Every good restaurant and tea shop needs a couple of guardians. For some reason, the lady looks very French to me!

But why is her hand up? Is she greeting customers?

EG CameraGirl said...

And she is dressed colourfully too!

Leif Hagen said...

Very cute! But I don't think I'd let them stand out in the rain and weather if I were the shop owner!

Haha, in Jerusalem restaurants have a security guard at the entrance. Glad you can have wooden greeters instead.

Effectivement je m'en souviens beaucoup de couleurs cette femme; ensuite peut être les enfants qui c'est?

Good to see that the waiting around paid off. Why do women take such a long time !!

She seems very happy. If I had a great big beautiful ring like hers, so would I. Very fun post.
