Did you ever wonder how they do that?

While Kelly and I have been out and about in Paris, we have solved a few mysteries.  Kelly solved the first mystery when he was taking Kate to get a new computer battery at the Apple Store in the underground mall by the Louvre.
Mystery No. 1:  How do they clean those glass pyramids at the Louvre?
Answer to Mystery No. 1:  They hang from ropes inside the pyramid.

Doesn't it look like fun inside those pyramids?
Kelly solved the second mystery when he was out running past the Eiffel Tower.
Mystery No. 2:  How do they trim those plane trees along the Champ de Mars in that straight box shape?
Answer to Mystery No. 2:  There's an attachment that turns the tractor into a giant hedge trimmer.

I solved the final mystery when we took a walk to Notre Dame on Sunday to read the portals and then strolled across the bridge of locks over to the Latin Quarter.

Mystery No. 3:  Where do you buy the locks so you can express your undying love for someone, attach the lock to the bridge, and throw the key into the Seine?
Answer to Mystery No. 3:  There is a Souvenir Shop for that at the end of the bridge.  Just in case you can't read English, there is a little drawing of a lock on the sign.  And don't forget the cold drink to go along with it.
