Trophies

  More than one hundred years ago , some french sailors gathered around german trophies .

Those guys , even described as "sailors", were  actually  belonging to naval infantry , or french marine corps , an infantry force that specialized  in the support of naval and army operations on land.

  Tomorrow the lockdown will come to its end.

Well , we must still stay outside no more than three hours long, and go away no more than 20 kms far, but , well , that's already a great feeling of liberty !

I was in the lovely city of Menton five weeks ago  , from now on I'll be able to go back there again.

Joy!!
