The Looking Glass



People tend to be kind to the cats and often put down food for them. Good pickings today in the metal workers' square.



The fish bones here almost look like cartoon ones - if you can see them clearly enough.

In the square of the metal workers, where they cut glass to suit - and where all the bits of glass for above the doorways came from -my attention was caught by this large mirror with palm tree motifs.

There are always lots of kittens here - as well as lots of bits of metal and slivers of glass. I worry that the kittens will cut their paws but somehow they don't seem to.

What a wonderful place that plaza must be for observing. Cats and kittens, metal and glass--all of them in all colors.

It is funny how cats can walk on glass. We have broken glass along the top of the outside wall of our house. The cats just walk right along the top without getting cat at all.
