The Route du Rhum has not started yet, it is attracting people to Saint-Malo this weekend. It must be said that the sun is for many!
To put it simply, one could say that there were two groups of walkers on the harbor yesterday. Those who will come back during the Route du Rhum and those who will not come back.
"We will come back after departure"
"We've come as long as it's easy to park and because we do not know what the weather will be like next week. In any case, there will be too many people. The start, we will see on TV and we will follow the whole race too! Explain Sylvie, the girl and Lise, the granddaughter of Rennes, with Annick, the grandmother and Mauricette his sister, from Doue-la-Fontaine in Maine-et-Loire.
Others will come back, but after the start of the race: "We were curious to see Energy Observer, and then nothing. Not seen ... There are still barriers everywhere, but it does not matter. It seems that he stays there a long time, we will come back after the departure! " Smile Claude and Madeleine, Saint-Marcan.
Florence Arthaud? "I was only one year old"
And there is also this young Parisian couple, Elisabeth and Fred, curious about the imprints of the winners, on the Route du Rhum quay. "I saw that they were small hands," Fred said. Oh yes, normal is a woman. Florence Arthaud, I had never heard of it. Apparently she won in 1990 ... "
The reflection makes a Malouine leap, "How do you know Florence Arthaud? The first woman to win? But it's not possible, that! Nothing that disturbs the young man on a walk for the first time in Saint-Malo. "You know, sailing and me, blah. And then in 1990, I was only a year old! "
