Another very busy weekend has been had by the Lopez family. Our village put on such great events.
Bastille Day is the main National holiday for France. Officially the date is the 14 July however celebrations generally go on all weekend.
Our village held a Bar B Que for 120 people. It was great. Tomato and tuna salad starter, lots of meat and sausage, cheese, citron tarte followed by coffee. Absolutely delicious. Oh forgot the most important pleasure. It was all washed down with a combination of rose wine, chateau neuf de pape for all you wine buffs out there. (my fav) Its not the local wine. A french couple we were sat with brought a bottle with them and shared it with us.
At midnight the children walked around the village with lanterns. Must have been twenty five children. They walk behind a car which drives very slowly and plays music.
We finally got home about 1.30am. A good time was had by all.
