Today deliv­ered a bright and cheer­ful blue-dap­pled day in the city but there were dark forces abroad.  Three grim reapers were seen around town this after­noon com­plete with scythes and flow­ing dark hood­ed robes.  They were spot­ted at the begin­ning of their jaunt in the dank, dark alleys of Left Bank; then again at the library hit­ting the romance and mur­der mys­tery sec­tions; lat­er at New World doing a spot of shop­ping; and tak­ing some air on the water­front at dusk (pho­to cred­it Domini­ka Zielin­s­ka).

They were har­vest­ing more squeals and smiles than souls and seemed to be a hit with the tourists.

To what do we owe this psy­chopomp?
