"09/2021 - Between dog walkers, cyclists, rollerbladers, scooters, and others, a joyful hodgepodge where it's good to hold your own, because civility leaves something to be desired from time to time. A nice area for a stroll, all the same, under the sun and in the shade of beautiful trees. Along the Marle."
