National Holiday – 14th of July

                             

It is the 14th of July. French national holiday. I did not go to the big firework, since I did not want to go alone. But that is ok. I saw several fireworks, so I am not sad. In Montpellier was a lot going on at the Place de la Comedie. A parade with police and military was there, not as big as the parade in Paris today, but nice.

I drove with my little Clio to Montpellier. I met Clive in the Bar Vert-Anglais and had some drinks there with some of his friends and also Hans, who arrived today. It was nice to sit outside. The weather is great here. Clive left a little later. He had to get some sleep after having a party til 7am in the morning. Hans and I went to a small Restaurant. The rest of Montpellier was pretty quiet.

Only at Place de la Comedie was some party going on. A Stage, lots of people. The french flag was everywhere.

Before I went there I was almost stuck at home. A few minutes before I left a ugly smell was noticeable in my apartment. Not that I had some beans and Chili…Noo But exactly that smell was here. In the bathroom of our guestroom everything started. I turned the water on to let it flow down the drain, but the water did not went away. Even worse, yellow,brown smelly water came up and had a even worse smell. It was unbelieveable. I went to the front desk and told them my problem. After about 20 minutes I heard, blubb blubb blubb and the water disappeared. The guys were outside and opened the main-drain. Other Apartments had the same problem. So I was lucky now and everything is clean again.  Hopefully that was the last time.

A bientot
