Swimming with the sharks

On rainy day in La Rochelle, after filling your face with moules mouclade (mussels in curry sauce - yum) a visit to the aquarium is an excellent way to spend the afternoon.

At this point, Matt and Andy were standing on a plexiglass ledge that protruded into the shark tank. It was only afterwards that I noticed they shouldn't be doing it (which sounds like a pretty lame excuse in retrospect).
