Benches

The lock-covered fence in the background is a dead give away that these benches are on Pont des Arts!

What's Wrong With This Picture?

If you look closely at this image of the Pont des Arts, you will notice that there are NO or rather very few love locks on the railings. It must be some job for workers to remove the locks once they've covered the railing as they most often are. This photo was taken in January 2010 and when I returned in November of that same year, the locks had returned with a vengence. I'm guessing that this mother and child pass this way often and aren't particularly surprised by the lack of locks.
