A lie can be
halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on. ~ James Callaghan
I have
been watching off and on the TOUR DE FRANCE, this year 2012, it runs from Saturday
June 30th to Sunday July 22th 2012. The main group of riders is called a Peloton,
which is where we get the English word platoon from, a group of military men.
In French peloton can mean, ball, squad,
or pack.
The photograph below was taken at La Guimorais, 35350 nr Saint-Coulomb, in Bretagne, France I felt that the horizon
looked like the world is round.
Some people still believe that the earth is indeed flat and a Flat Earth Society exists! Link to wikipedia HERE.
My very best wishes to you.
