Petanque and fun times in Paris
Pétanque is a sport that falls into the category of boules sports, along with raffa, bocce, boule lyonnaise, lawn bowls and crown green bowling.
The group spent an afternoon watching and playing Petanque. We might not earn any competitions but there were a few teams that have some potential.
The last afternoon was spent enjoying each other and saying our au revoir to new friends and to Paris. No one can leave Paris forever.....
Enjoy the photos!
