Estelle plays with Manou:
Saturday afternoon Estelle goes to the park with Eliott, who tries his best to break the springs on this piece of playground equipment:

Estelle shows Léna how to stretch:I, meanwhile, do nothing except nurse the baby and eat strawberries on a spear:
A little video from the festival yesterday that Thomas took as I didn't go.... wait until Karen Carpenter stops singing in the background before you launch the video, that way you can hear the audio that goes with it.
