[En images] In Montluçon, on this Ascension Thursday, everyone has their deconfinement

We could have expected a human tide surging through the streets for this post-confinement holiday, but downtown Montluçon was almost deserted on this Ascension Thursday.

And for good reason, with a mercury peaking at 30 °, the inhabitants of the city on the banks of the Cher seemed rather to have cravings for freshness and outdoor activities.

Swimming in the Wilson garden fountain

For some, the Wilson Garden was the right compromise to enjoy this hot day. Like Emina and Lana, who were able to splash around for a few moments in the Wilson garden fountain under the supervision of their parents.

“We were taking a walk in the historic center and we happened to pass by the garden, says little Emina’s mother. Basically, she wanted to go where there are games but nothing has been disinfected. The slide is disgusting! “

Guillaume and his three children preferred to invest in the Nerdre bike park, to “allow the children to let off steam” after fifty-five days of confinement. “We are lucky to live in the countryside, we hiked at least an hour every day during confinement. After that, there are video games and you also have to go to school at home,” he said. .

Corentin, 15, was particularly “frustrated” during confinement. Passionate about cross-country biking, the young man could not indulge in his favorite sport for almost two months.
