Y7 pupils invade a French market place and buy local produce for the splendid picnic lunch later. A few good hagglers were born today and great bargains were discovered - 5 French cheeses for 5 Euros was a steal!
From here, we went on to travel along a beautifully scenic
train route by velorail (four man cycle powered buggies). Fortunately,
the weather held through our cycling, but broke just as we started to tuck into
the delicious feast that we had bought at the market place. One of the old rail carts was opened up
specifically for us, and it was none too soon: the heavens opened
The rain stopped before we changed and
got into our kayaks. Sadly, the weather didn't hold, but by the time the rain
started falling again, we were so wet that we didn’t care! It was warm and so a fun time was had
by all.
Wet but happy the Latymerians returned to the farmhouse to
enjoy a tasty and filling lasagne, followed by a great fruit, meringue, crème
fraiche and chocolate pudding concoction!
