11 August- Clamecy – Canal de Nivernais
We have stayed on at Clamecy for their big waterways festival, including frog leg tasting.
delicious!!
and then along cam a traveling steel band
That was on the Saturday after the market and then there was Sunday!!
Plenty of exotic craft passing by including a broken down ex-car being dragged along by a swimmer
and at first quite serene and then everybody decided to get wet.
and plenty of bizarre costumes on show
including the mad Viking on the next boat
I was genuinely pleased to see the broken car had got going
and we finished off the parade with a visit from some swimmers offering local booze!
