Aerial Photo of Marville

Jean-Paul Poisseroux


Take a good look at this aerial photo - a real good look! To many, it is almost impossible to identify what those little white specs along the runway and taxi ways really are.

I fondly refer to this photo as a "wild meeting".

My sources advise me that there is a meeting, about every six years, held at Marville. The white specs are "mobile homes" or "caravans". The owners are people that have no fixed homes per se and they spend their lives travelling from location to location throughout Europe. Sort of like a modern day version of a "Gypsy" I suppose.

It appears that they do little to no work for a living, and no-one knows how they get financial assistance. It is reported that many of their cars are stolen.
