Slow Sunday

When Amané bought the new album of Captain Parade,

Laurent Paradot said to her: 

"Put the volume at the maximum volume

before going to school !".

She put the cd at 8 morning

but not at the maximum !!

and she sang

and she danced

and she played invisible guitar

invisible drums...!!

After, still with her cd,

she prepared a lunch for both of us.

I swear: I helped for nothing !!

and all was delicious !

cucumber, betteraves, tomatoes...

Then, potatoes, carrots, courgettes, onions and chicken...

Then chocolate biscuits, yaourts and fresh peach.

In the afternoon we went to the fête foraine:

she did the carabine a lot, and some auto-tamponneuses.

Watching Pollyanna animation

in her favorite pyjama:

merci Baba Hitomi !!

Photo festival and rock concert

As every year we went to the photo documentary festival in a tiny village.

Amané is 8 y old now, 

and I could feel it because she read everything and took her time to watch all pictures.

She had also a lot of questions.

Because it's documentary, it treated about refugees and wars,

or humanity unfair economical social status.

here it was about Philippine people treated as slaves

by millionaires.

Of course there were some little parts more light....!

She read all the poems...

She really loved this one: about a feminine rugby team

in a poor suburb near Paris.

She understood very well the main purpose:

-rugby is usually for boys,

-rugby is usually for white people,

-rugby is usually for up social people

but this team fought well:

-they are girls, they are black, they are poor

...but they achieved what they want: going to big clubs !

Pause

Most of documentaries were about refugees:

first Amané took her time and asked lot of questions...

but after a while she was too sad and too choked....

After a little walk in the river

we went to the big scene of rock in Angouleme:

it was the presentation of the year so there were many concerts.

Amané could for the first time dance and do pogo

on real rock with Captain Parade.

She was crazy about it !!!

Then she could even watch and listen my friends group: Purge (punk music...!!)

Didi's knee

On Thursday Didi had a big chirurgical operation:

a prothesis for one of his knee.

We went to say Hello at the hospital after school.

He was ok and played sudoku with Amané

Back home a picture for daddy.

At Minchan restaurant

Nathalie and Nick came from New-York

to visit us.

With Amané we went to Minchan's Chinese restaurant.

Amané loved Nick's car !

Bye bye friends !!
