Ayayi "Ziggy" Kessouagni visits Detroit from Chicago








Ziggy (his nickname) and his wife April (and his daughters) visited Detroit this weekend and of course played some petanque. Here he's playing with April, James, Cheryl, Mike and Jeff in a triplette. I remember well how solidly he shoots, so we were extra careful in our pointing. The shade of Campus Martius Park, and the quiet setting, with a smaller fountain than Buckingham Fountain in Chicago, lent a "small village" air to the early afternoon.

Mamanry (from Philadelphia) called in from the Bastille Day petanque game playing in New York.

Ziggy was so excited about playing petanque in Detroit that he's likely to play in Royal Oak on Sunday (stay tuned).
