Um, Grampies..you just did 😬

Pochards are the weirdest looking duck.

Where’s “mami”?

Gotta love cockleburs!

Thank you for this information! I was actually going to ask if you would consider bagging the biscuits for “armor at the busses”, just in case.
Reassuring to learn the biscuits are cleaned off the streets daily..

Prefer horses to cars any day, and droppings to gas fumes. Besides, in most French towns they hose down all the streets every morning so it doesn't sit around too long.

We too would ve happy to watch a bull "fight" in the Camargue region. It seems more sporting that only speed, skill and agility are involved. We hard the idea of a "blood" sport. Try contacting the Office de Tourism of Arles and ask if there are any contests scheduled in the region at the time you plan to be here?

No parked cars, but horse “bisquits” which should ( but never are) picked up..

I was literally just researching bull fighting in France!

It is not the same as in Spain/Mexico. The bulls have ribbons and pom moms tied on their horns and the 'raseteurs' get points by removing the ribbons. The bulls have 5-8 year careers, and are then retired. There's no blood shed. I would go see this kind of bull fight, which is called a race in France. But when I tried googling bull race France, even specifying France, it takes me to Pamplona. Ugh.

Gotta love autocorrect?

And did you make note of the fact that Camargue horses ARE Unicorns?

Yes - such an interesting area to explore. It was our first time through this area. We originally intended to go to Les Saintes Maries as recommended by fellow travellers but thought it required some doubling back so we went the more direct route. Next time. Great flamingo and horse shits - I mean shots. Typo!

Watched this with the kids again just last week!

Caption fail for sure!

And they are! Party sardines and sailing sardines ;)
