More Fete en Fleurs

This is the float that was put together by the over 60 club in our town. As you can see everyone has to be creative in trying to make a tractor not look like a tractor.


This float was put together by the association for donating blood. They have blood drives here every two months and the nursing staff comes from Toulouse.
This is the float for the rugby club. This area of France is where most of the rugby players are from that play on the French Rugby Team. They start teaching the children rugby when they are six years old. The classes are open to both boys and girls.

The sapeurs (first medical responders) and pompiers (firemen and women) put together this float. The people that are involved with this organization are all volunteers. I can not say enough about all of the work these people do. Many times they are involved in very dangerous operations, especially when it comes to the fires. The number 18 that is on the side of the float is the 911 number here in France.

These are very inventive floats! I especially like the egg on the "Don du Sang" one! Thanks for sharing all your doings in France!

They are all lovely, Keith.

Makes me wish I could visit sometime.
