It's Still There...

Can't go without mentioning the Peter Pan statue in Kensington Gardens.
It showed up "by magic" on this date in 1912.
It's a little more special for me now that I have seen it in person. When I mentioned it today, Bart reminisced about the (literal) joy and wonder of having it appear suddenly just around the bend. After walking for hours in the Gardens, soaking in their beauty, wham, there it is unexpectedly. It's an astounding piece of work. Wonderful sculpture indeed. But just not quite "Pan." I've said it before in my other posts.

Still Standing...
96 Years Ago Today...
