Surprise Summer Downpour, Luxembourg Gardens, Paris - July 2015

Photo by Mike McLellan
We were watching the kids play and float sailboats in the pond in Luxembourg Gardens in Paris, when the clouds darkened and the wind blew a little harder and suddenly the sky opened up in a delightful rain. Mary Ann Kaleno had been our guide and she joined us under a palm tree near the chateau. I started snapping photos of folks seeking shelter. This couple - he being more fearful of the rain - put a chair on top of their heads... note her trying to get a little bit of chair. 
   Then the rain went away as it had come and we went on over to the world famous puppet theater in the Gardens to watch a show.
