Recordist's notes
The Seine river is flowing from the Burgundy area to the Normandy area. In this part of the river, ther's no footpath to walk along the river. So we made the choice to discover the river swimming. As we didn't have any choice, we made 139 km swimming like that, during a little more than one week. It was quite long but very beautiful.
