SATURDAY
Saturday and Sunday's festivites for the Carnaval du Bœuf Villé were canceled (for the first time in its history) supposedly due to weather, though it was in fact a beautiful day.

People were hanging about in centre ville and kids were spraying shaving cream on each other.



Prémilhat and Templemore, Ireland are sister cities, which is what inspired the Fête de la Saint Patrick. The sister city association hosted the wonderful event. A live band played Irish music all night (my supervisor played the accordion). A number of people from Club anglais showed up and I even saw one of my students who had come with her family.
