Yesterday we continued down river and passed Meulan, an important crossing point on the Seine in the 11th c that controlled and taxed river traffic. Meulan came to the Norman family of Beaumont in the mid 11th c and were important political players between Normandy and France #Saga25 #MedievalSky 1/

Paris Olympic Games 1924. Ella Maillart races a 16.4-foot wooden dinghy in the Monotype mixed sailing event on the River Seine at Meulan, the youngest sailor and only woman among the 17 competitors.

At the 1924 Paris Olympics, Ella Maillart (1903-97) was the first woman to helm a sailboat, the youngest sailor among the 17 competing nations, the only woman to compete in her event, and the youngest of the 5 women in the 141-strong Swiss team.

In the Monotype mixed sailing event on the river Seine at Meulan near Paris, Ella raced for the first time a 16.4-foot (5 metres) wooden dinghy. She was eliminated in the semi-finals and finished ninth out of 17 participants. "Not participating in the finals was very hard for me," she wrote in 'Cruises and Caravans', yet it remained the best achieved by a Swiss woman until 2006.

There are only two Olympic sports where men and women compete directly against each other; equestrian and sailing, though in sailing it is now only in one event.

Meeeeeeeeeeuuuuuuuh
(Meuh lent)

La scène montre la gare de Meulan d’architecture classique du XIXe siècle, avec une façade en briques rouges et crépi clair, typique des petites gares historiques françaises. On remarque le soin apporté aux détails décoratifs : poutres métalliques rouges ornées de volutes, cheminées en briques, et une marquise élégante qui surplombe le quai. La gare semble fermée, avec les rideaux de fer baissés. À droite, un petit panneau indique l’accès aux toilettes publiques. L’ambiance est calme, presque figée, renforcée par les herbes qui poussent entre les rails au premier plan.
En bas à gauche, le reflet d'une femme avec des lunettes de soleil qui tire la langue de façon complice.
