Imagine a speed so fast that it could be dangerous for the athletes participating and even for our beloved mayor, whom we affectionately call the queen of construction projects. To ensure everyone's safety, a decision has been made to delay her little swim by a week. It may seem like a small matter, but a wise choice nonetheless... Hidalgo will now dip her toes in the water, but not until June 30th. Let's hope that the heavy rains of recent weeks, which also led to the cancellation of the opening ceremony rehearsal, will have subsided by then. Originally set for the end of May, the rehearsal for the ceremony is now scheduled for June 17th. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Are we ready... or is there more to come? As of now, while the city hall is optimistic about improvements in the coming days, especially with the new sewage tanks at the Austerlitz train station, nothing is certain. So, the triathlon, swimming marathon, and paratriathlon events may also face changes. Events scheduled to take place next to the Seine are in jeopardy. But faced with a situation that has still led some Parisians to gather to go poop in the Seine during the mayor's swim, it seems that the only plan B is to postpone the events, without changing the location.Anne Hidalgo s'entraîne toujours pour sa baignade dans la Seine malgré le report. #Paris2024 pic.twitter.com/6IzZzw745u

Isn't it strange to consider how the Seine River's flow is linked to the unexpectedly high levels of fecal bacteria? Perhaps all these delays are simply a tactic to prevent embarrassment and preserve their reputation. Let's cross our fingers that it doesn't become an "Under the Seine" scenario in real life, putting lives at risk just to maintain appearances. Definitely a story worth keeping an eye on!Cette TikTokeuse montre son soutien à Anne Hidalgo en se baignant tous les jours dans la Seine, comme le prouvent ses vidéos.
