15th August fireworks

I can't resist doing another firework post: it's been a while! 

15th August is the Assumption of Mary in the Catholic church - the day she went to heaven. France, like the UK, is not very church-going these days, but a national holiday is a national holiday (and the fireworks aren't bad either)!

Little Alfie with his Maman, well protected from the loud bangs. He LOVED it!

I'll let the photos tell the story now

And the best news is: next year both firework displays will be with music, like in the old days!
