At the Place d’Alma Tunnel
Flowers laid August 31 wilt in remembrance.

Walking over toward the the Eiffel Tower, you may note an odd sculpted torch above the Place d’Alma tunnel and cars streaking down the hill. If it’s early September you’ll also see memorials to Princess Diana, who died after a car crash in the tunnel August 31, 1997, her driver racing away from photographers on motorbikes.
Obviously photographers of the non-professional, slow sort, are still chasing “Lady Di.” And so are Parisian admirers, with letters and of course flowers.
