SATURDAY
I stopped my the Montluçon train station with Becky, because the train station is one of the places where you can find photos booths in France. The photo booths are for idenitification photos (for example passports, job applications (which is legal in France), driver licenses, etc..). Becky needed a photo for the bus pass.
This is an advertisement for the 12-25 card, which is a discount card for those between the ages twelve and twenty-five. The ad says: jusqu’à -60% sur le train pour apporter tes lessive à maman [save around 60% on train fares and bring your laundry home to mom]. The ad was in the Montluçon train station.


The Cler River and Saint Pierre Bridge. There is a parade of cars on the other side of the river and a majority of them were part of a wedding precession. This is the second Saturday that I have spent in Montluçon and it appears to be rather habitual to have cars following the bride and groom and honking. The honking went on for at least ten minutes. Kind of amusing.

I shot a video of the precession as to give audio reference to the wedding precession: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2l9YYfN_UBw (you don't need to watch the whole thing to get the idea).
