I enjoyed very much this excursion in the Baie de Somme: beautiful landscapes and nice encounters.
The are some interesting aspects of this region: the "hortillonnages" of Amiens (an area of 300 hectares with 55 kilometers of water canals, small parcels of vegetables, the truck farmers Thérèse and René produce vegetables, transport by boat to the market, the guide Jean-Baptiste organizes boat tours-about 120000 tourists each year-), the town of Abbeville and the Skate Park (the director Yann Colignon, the BMX bikers Antoine and Jon enjoy this place, the promotion of the BMX riding in Ault), the port of Saint-Valéry-sur-Somme ( Sully Lebeau and the monitoring of the 46 buoys in the Baie de Somme, the cartographer Philippe and the new map of the channel, the fisherman Alain Delaby and the sea bass fishing , the selling of the fresh fishes in his "poissonnerie"), the salted meadow lambs (the sheep breeder Régis and the shepherd Mikael, the sheep walking in the meadow, then the footbath and the selection of the lambs, about 12 breeders in the Baie de Somme), the Henson horse ( Lionel Berquin, one of the first breeders of the Henson horse, the guide Stéphane and horseback riding tours , the polo-cross-the Henson horse is very adapted for this new sport coming from Australia that riders play on meadows or sand beaches-) and the pebbles of Cayeux-sur-Mer ( Pascal et Jean-Dominique and the collecting of the pebbles by hand, the 4 industrial companies and the dredging of of the sea bed and the mechanical separation of the sand, gravel and pebbles,Patrick Thierry-Picardie Nature- speaking about the pebbles and the growth of the seakales).
I enjoyed the encounters of Sacha with the guide Julie Guerin and the puppet maker Jean-Pierre Facquier, with Martine Roll (the Citroen 2 CV tours), with the artist and painter Pippa Darbyshire, with the train controler Claude Pierre, with Jean Boucault, with Jean-Marie Lecat at the Baie de Somme, with Aurélie Stohl (the horseback riding), with the caretaker of the seals Laetitia Dupuis and with the ULM instructor Didier Delvaux;nice encounters with very kind French men and women.
