Yesterday, going to a place of prayer, where people generally have the reputation of being rather reasonable, I suddenly saw the building fill up like the Gulf of Morbihan during a high-coefficient rising tide! Even if I had my place previously booked, as required by the health protocol decreed by the national authorities. Alas, in front of the tidal wave, I had to retreat by explaining that I, too, believed in eternal life but that I still had two or three duties (and incidentally one or two files) to complete in this world.<\/p>\n
The same evening, having forgotten a navy jumpsuit, I left for the Grand-Plage of Ile-aux-Moines, and I saw, in the middle of the expanse of sand, a few dozen young people closely gathered, talking and dancing. A few days earlier, a big public party had taken place in the same place: as people arrived around the “DJ”, the sea, inexorably drawn by the Moon, rose up the beach. The phenomenon of compression between the granite wall and the rising water was not lacking.<\/p>\n
Faced with such scenes in a rather family and quiet place, I do not dare to imagine the unfolding of the many official or impromptu events that must have taken place in the large seaside resorts of southwestern France or the C\u00f4te d’ Azur. The News, however, are sobering: Catalonia, on our doorstep, has resumed confinement and Spain is considering closing its borders again, no matter what the EU spirit. In the United States, China, India and in the UK, the Corona continues.
