Some things about France you may not know...

i have learned a few things while I have been here that I consider obscure and not mainstream, but you can decide for yourself.

Tecktonik dancing

There is no description for this, but it is a form that I think I have heard is nearly all France - go ahead correct me...





Petanque

This is a really cool lawn bowling type game that the French play all the time. I would love to buy a set and bring it back with me, but the balls are way too heavy for my already overloaded belongings.
