Default Re: Happy Birthday, Leto !

As promised to my co-moderators staff, here are some peak of what my holidays looked like. As the pics are big, I just post the links to them :

An artificial lake down in South France known for its red shore and red water.

Le Pont du diable over the Herault river, for those of you who ever been to New-York city, it's just a few miles from the original site of one the Cloisters (St-Guilhem le Desert) and a very cool place to swim and relax.

A cicada, the summer musician down there.

Artificial lake ? You mean, only water, no plants or fish ?

No, I mean created artificially in the 60s by men to serve as a watertank for Canadairs. The place always have big fires in summer.

There's many flora and fauna in, including crawfish.

Interesting but not my favourite. The water taint you red after and the stones in the lake are not polished enough yet, so you better swim with plastic shoes on.

I usually swim at the Pont du Diable (second pic), but I wanted to show the Salagou to my hubby, and there's a lot of hiking to do around the place.
