Champignon Expedition in Le Rouret

 Le Rouret is way up there in the woods about the sea. It is 2 towns over from me. I saw the notice for the event and got up early to get there by 9.
The bald man in the black jacket with glasses was the expert. People had their knives, baskets, and listening ears on. As we walked into the woods ( Piste Roman) people would go off into the woods and seek out mushrooms.
I hung around the edges. I didn't need to speak fluently to find the mushrooms. When people would find something interesting, they would bring it out to the man expert who would hold it up and speak about it.

Must find a nice basket for this. 

Big Mushrooms
The expert. The man in red had a tackle box. He was in search of the tiny mushrooms and kept them in the top of the box.


This was a big mushroom that was filled with brown dust.

This man was a bit of a jokester. On the way back, he thought he found a very special red mushroom. He took out his knife, leaned down to cut it, turned it over and voila...it was a strawberry...he got a good ribbing over that. 

The group.
Look at this one!
