I like to swim in the rivers, but swimming in the Tarn is not easy, as it is very shallow in summer times. But near Les Détroits the river has formed some pools, that are small but really deep. Perfect to jump in in the early morning, before the sun has reached the bottom of the gorge - and no canoe is in sight.

There are many different "cuisines" in France. In Les Détroits life is simple - and food too. But it was not bad, the wine was cool and we could sit outside until nightfall.

We had met a couple that was very experienced in astronomy and looked for a very dark place. So together we booked rooms in "Les Détroits", a kind of simple B+B place in the gorge, with no village around. After we arrived they spotted this vulture.
