Parade militaire et beach handball

On Saturday we were caught in the streets as a huge military parade was passing by.  We were so close we could touch the paraders.  Saumur is the home of a military base and an elite military equestrian school, so there are always either personnel in fatigues walking around or police riding around on horses or military students on a run.



On Sunday we attended a beach handball tournament on the banks of the Loire.  The weather has been wonderful, luckily.

This week is also La Fête des Films.  Thanks to the French minister of culture, all the movie theaters are discounted!
