We didnt run a marathon
But watch and followed the marathon
Is the annual paris marathon
And they will bypass our apartment
I was a little bored to think that
We will be standing there
And stare blankly at people running
But I was so wrong
The street was full of people cheering
Musicians, bands, clowns,
Firemen using their ladders to watch and cheer
And people holding strange items to cheer
Eg a really big teddy bear
Is nice to know all these
Were not arranged by the organizers
But people who volunteered on their own
To perform and cheer the runners..
So the moment we step out of our building
We were staring at the runners!
So cool for the first class view..
I was very surprise to see the water station
They have sliced oranges and bananas
Freshly cut for them
I only remember having banana
After my yellow ribbon run
Haha
We followed the trail for about 3km
To Bastille
Where we got distracted
By a big sunday food market
Hehe
Thereafter I took my first bike ride in paris!
Basically bikes are on street
And you can rent them
I think to promote less driving
With most roads closed for marathon
I decided it was a good chance
For me to try cycling in paris
Not a good experience for me
Im scared to squeeze on the right side
Whenever a car pass
In the 1 lane street
And you need basic traffic knowledge
Eg cars from right has right of way
As bicycles are only to be on road
Not walkway
Despite really few cars
I was so nervous
And happy when we were home
After 15mins
-.-"
I think cycling on roads
Is not for me..
I shld stick to walking
Or learn skateboard
Or get a skate scooter
Good sunday!
