Life as a Physicist

We were out having a pre dinner drink near the Vieux Port this afternoon when the square suddenly filled with people. Then someone blew a whistle. We were sort-of aware there were lots of people, but then after the whistle we looked around and noticed someone pointing a banana, frozen in time. What?? A weird sort of flash mob, perhaps? Plenty of weird stuff going on this afternoon in Marseille. We are going to miss Marseille when we have to return to Seattle.
