Delayed somewhat by a great 2 day festival in Soissons and today when we're ready to leave, engine running, just casting off, when a guy came running up staying 'interdit, interdit'. There was a swimming race with dozens of nageurs et plongeurs (swimmers and divers) in the water upstream round the corner so moving anywhere was interdit!! Oh well, another day here, c'est la vie. The good news was that he invited us for aperatives before we left. It was Sunday lunchtime afterall!
The festival was great fun and had all sorts of exciting things going on.......from astronomy, looking at sunspots, to a Spiegeltent which reminded us of the festival in Bath. Great music, boat and bus theatres, competitions, local produce for sale.....
Looking at sun spots.
Spiegeltent with inhabitant!
