Judy... How wonderful to have been vacationing in France with your daughter and granddaughter! The closest I've ever been to REAL (rather than plastic) flamingos is the renowned (renowned for WHAT, I have no idea, unless it's just for BEING there) flock that reside in the San Diego Zoo! I had the good fortune to vacation in France (and the Netherlands, Italy, and England for 23 days 'round 30 years ago and could have easily stayed forever <smile>.
