This morning we have taken advantage of the weather which is very good since the beginning of the month

So we have made a pottery workshop with red clay that you leave to dry.

Children made different kind of pots and littles vase and bowls that they could bring back at home.

Speedboat on the lake

2007-08-04T01:49:00.000-07:00

Yesterday morning, while the campsite almost waked up, I could try my new toy : my radio-controled speedboat.

It is ideal on the lake, because there is no wave and no current or perturbations, so you have a good control of the machine.
Moreover, the island and the trampoline make a nice itinerary to follow.

Sit on a pic-nic table or just stand on the little sand beach with the feet in the water : a very quiet and relaxing morning !

Barbecue party at the lake

2007-08-02T05:27:00.000-07:00

Tuesday evening, the barbecue took place on the edge of the lake.

We were numerous and we very well ate.

To conclude the evening, we made a great fire. Everybody was delighted, and also us !

Prices succeed one another, and we didn't expect any more to win, but we were very happy, and came back to the campsite, proudly brandishing the trophy, and sharing our joy with the participants.

We will celebrate this victory tomorrow evening, at the occasion of the barbecue party on the edge of the lake.

The trophy will sit imposingly in the reception

Scarecrow time

St Cyprien Bodega

2007-07-07T03:03:00.000-07:00
