African Safari

I had a picnic with another lovely friend yesterday (Yeah I have friends. No big deal.)

Like most Paris parks, they are AMAZING.  I am used to parks being grass. And trees. 

 Parc des Buttes Chaumont surrounds a lake and in the center of a lake is big hill with a stone gazebo on the top.

As we were leaving, we encountered a parade of sorts.  Loads of school children dressed up like African animals. No idea why...but it was adorable. The pics aren't the best but I only had my point and shoot, but you get the idea.
