Hey girl,

This afternoon, I'm gonna get you wet... let's go with me to the water fight!!!

You read it well, as summer is coming in, some water fight game is in the air ;p

But this water fight will be even better than the one you had at school when you were a child because this time the teacher are not gonna interrupt your game!

So tell your friends and grab some water gun to join the water fight in ..... at 15:00 on Saturday 11th of May 2015.

In ...... you will find public fountain so you'll be able to fill your water gun in.

By the way I have a little trick that you can use if you can't found a water gun in Paris and you still wanna go to the water fight without being the wimp.

It's a trick I used to have with my sister when we were children and trust me it works amazingly!

So if you don't have a water gun, just bring an empty bottle of ketchup, mayonnaise or mustard.
Just think to clean the ketchup, mayonnaise or mustard bottle before using it as a water gun and you will be impress by how fine those plastic bottle can replace the water guns ;)

For your safety and the safety of the Water Fight, we invite you to read those manners rules edited by the Water Fight staff:

Simple cleanliness and safety rules for the water fight:
1. We do the water fight to have fun, not to hurt people, please be responsible of your acts!!
2. Do not throw water over the people: who have cameras; the tourists or other passer-by.
3. We are not your parents or from the police, but if surprise someone doing something stupid or dangerous stop him and inform the water fight staff.
4. This is a giant water fight, not a giant disorder; keep the place clean and safe!
Water balloon are prohibited, because balloons pieces are difficult to clean.
5. Play it nice and enjoy!
