Just in time for Valentine's Day, I thought you all might enjoy these photos I took of the Pont des Arts. As the legend goes love-struck couples have been fastening padlocks to the railings of the Pont des Arts for years, engraving them with their initials, adding a few sentimental words and then tossing the keys into the Seine river below to symbolize their eternal love. Recently the government has begun removing the locks in order to preserve the structural integrity of the bridge, but I was lucky enough to visit when there was an abundance. Enjoy!
It's a very sweet tradition indeed ... today you can also do that on the net ... feel free to visit : www.thelovegrid.com
