Pere Lachaise is a 100-acre cemetery, 
(population 70,000) and still accepting new residents! We got there using bus #69, and returned using #69, 72, and 63 to get back to our apartment. There are many "notable" people buried here, among whom are Oscar Wilde, Gertrude Stein, Moliere, Jim Morrison, Frederic Chopin, and Baron Haussmann.

We were particularly interested to see the resting places of 
Moliere the great comic playwrite "Tartuf" (who once said, "We die only once and for such a long time." Gertrude Stein's last words when asked, "What is the answer?", replied, "What is the question?"

John was particularly interested in finding the site where Chopin was buried. John has played almost all his waltzes on the piano, and loves the music of Chopin!
