Worth visiting!

I love cemeteries and could have spent the whole day here searching out the interesting tombs of the famous and not so famous. But there were 5 other people in my group, 3 of whom would not have appreciated so much a day of traipsing about amongst the dead. We did find Jim Morrison and Chopin and this interesting tomb of a mid-19th century partisan. Excellently creepy!

oh yes

My sister climbed over the gate that surrounds it and got reprimanded.
There used to be a large metal bust of JM but supposedly it’s been stolen twice. Also, I think maybe he’s not really buried there…? Or maybe those are urban legends…

Your sister – of course she did.

Midwestern girls gone wild!

one of the lesser crazy things that particular Midwestern girl did last week.

Love it...

Yay for your sister. that’s something I would have done :)

So, if you aren’t allowed to climb over, how do the flowers get there?

good question

As soon as she got over, some guy in plainclothes started yelling and ran to fetch a cemetery guard! Then he came up to us (while the guard watched from the path) and asked her not to do that. Who knows who he was. Or what business it was of his.
