We had a great day discovering Millau yesterday (Friday)... we began the day with a visit to the local market where students had the chance to browse the fruit and meat stalls before having a quick look in some of the local shops. We then had a guided tour of the Millau museum and learnt all about the history of glove-making in the area... Can anyone remember which celebrities own a pair of gloves made in Millau? We also spent time making beautiful leather bracelets - I wonder if you can guess who made each one from the photo below.
We had hoped to spend the afternoon taking part in a canoeing lesson, however due to some recent storms in Millau, the level of the River Tarn was a little too high, so we headed back into the town centre for a quiz about the culture and history of Millau. Well done to Euan, Elizabeth, Ronan and Guillaume who were in the winning team!
Hopefully everyone has had the chance to relax a little this morning ahead of our pétanque and bowling party this evening... It seems Emily and Cindy think they stand a good chance of beating everybody!!
