Royal Patronage

Today being Christian's birthday, it started with a welcome phone call from Valérie and fortunately for me it was a busy one so no time to think. Coffee in the morning and a local carnival in the afternoon.
As the sky was threatening rain, the float stayed in the garage but we strutted our stuff by dancing, chanting and throwing confetti as we made our way through the streets. Even the Queen was there!
The theme is the Olympics uniting the world (well, there's no harm in hoping/dreaming) so, there's a stunning float with a revolving globe followed by "delegations" from different countries.
Light rain finally came as the parade finished and we headed to the other bar (under new management) in the village for a wee refreshment. Home for a short rest and then we all came back together again to finish off yesterday's leftovers. All good fun and we won 150€!
Weather:
13°, sun, cloud, hail shower and drizzle
