La Journée a l’Ancienne de Lunel
July.20,2013
Today was my favorite event during my summer in the south of France, en petite Camargue.
During the “Journee a l’Ancienne” (a day,as in the past), hundred people of all age range, dress like in the old times and meet in the bulls land which is 10 kilometers outside the town.
Everyone accesses this remote land by bicycle, horse-riding or by carriage like in the old times.
Breakfast is served and music is played so that people can eat and dance early in the morning to start the day.
The around 11 am, everybody leaves together and heads back to the city to enter the arenas before the toros (fighting bulls) arrive (called Abrivado).
You can see me with my pink shirt among the cavaliers.
It is an explosion of happiness and creativity. See these pictures from Cedric Vpassio album. It is very unique.
Such a nice day, with nice people!
