This afternoon, we headed out to put in our runs, but got sidetracked by hay barriers and downhill cart races about to start down the main street of town. We waited for the start, watched two trials for each of the twenty carts, and since a few hours had already passed, decided to just take a walk instead of running. There we some interesting carts- the Mario car that threw banana peels, a slipper, a bath tub, but I think the best wasn't a racer, but the traveling beer/beverage stand pulled by a tractor between each of the race sets. We didn't make it out to the parade, but then watched the town's firework display from one of our window sills. Happy Bastille day France.
