The mornings wine tasting at the local Chateaux hosted by Bridget Bardot was a fancy affair, a cauliflower foamed Meuse beuch on arrival then straight in to Canapés and vol au vents in between tastings of sparkling aperitifs.
Before we knew it we started to feel a little tipsy and foolishly signed up for an afternoon of extreme sports being held in the local area. We chose the combo package of Parkour and Fly Boarding.
The Parkour started well with both of us donning special pumps and managing to run up a couple of the smaller office blocks and even managed a couple of back flips off the window ledge before moving on to sliding gracefully over the roof of a parked Citroen Picasso.
Later, at the beach for our exciting session of Fly Boarding didn't go just so well!
The pressure in the hose was set far too high for us beginners and even with the instructor attached we both shot skyward, but in different directions and started to spin around uncontrollably about 20ft above the ocean, screaming and flailing about until Pierre turned the damn thing off and we all plummeted back into the sea....Never again!
Today's track is by Toots and the Maytals.
