A busy day in May

Ascension is a public holiday in France and this year 5th May fell on a Thursday: schools were closed and many companies shut down for a long weekend. La Tranche was like peak season in July and August. Local businesses weren't complaining though, with record takings for this time of year.

Pedro's bar is back, but sadly without Pedro who has had to move back to Portugal through poor health
There was a very high tide so not much room on the beaches for the sun-bathers
Some ventured into the sea but at 13.7ºC they must have been mad!

 Meanwhile back at the ranch, Sacha's loving playing out chez nous.

Mamie got the ball pool out...

...but the lion is still a favourite!
