It is a charity concert, takes place every year, I think.

Oops. Just slept for like 10 hours. Guess I needed it. Anyway, I was able to upload the first song with the boats.

Well, it's a darn good thing that I got a bunch of video because even with a seemingly decent camera I didn't really manage to take one good quality picture of Alizée. It's sad. I guess you really have to know what you are doing, though maybe if this camera had more manual settings I wouldn't be messing with so much at the wrong moment.

Les Enfoirés raises money for "Restos du Coeur," literally "restaurants of the heart." It is an organization that feeds the needy all over France. It was founded by a comedian named Colouche (may be off on the spelling), who also started the concert series. "Les Enfoirés" means "the bastards," a reference to an insult Colouche famously slung at the police after they interfered with something of his.

Part 2:
Around town:
So, we get up late enough that we decide there isn't really time to get food before checkout. We leave with our stuff and I'm so hungry that I don't want to drop stuff off at the next hotel before getting food. Ronny knows a good place to eat from the last time we were here; so, we wander around the town trying to find it and carrying all our stuff, which is fortunately not really all that much.
Keep your eye to the sky and you'll see the cathedral tower - a good landmark.

Oh, and there it is. We need to go this way.

There really are some interesting and apparently very old buildings in this city. Here's some more. Check out the added on section that's one room wide.

It's interesting how it has all this really old architecture, Gothic churches, etc., and then there's a clothing store or a camera store or something just across the little street.

Finally we find Flam's, the restaurant we were looking for. Food is ok. Not really my thing. Pasta plate is not very big or maybe I'm just too hungry. Atmosphere and decoration is nice.

After that, we finally go to leave our stuff at the hotel, which is pretty nice actually.
We decide to visit La Petite France.

That looks like such a cool place to go. Farthest out I ever been was to Las Vegas haha. Maybe one day when I get rich I'll go there :P

Excellent pictures, Roman! That is some nice architecture.

Here's a little video that kind of shows the huge screens that the opening previous concert extracts were played on and of course close up of the action throughout the concert.
