Hi Scooby - glad you had a good time!
The weather has been poor this summer, with temperatures hovering around 20 degrees for weeks, with frequent rain and too-frequent-for-my-liking-at-this-time-of-the-year violent thunderstorms. Very violent...
There is a nice little étang in Adriers, just behind the salle polyvalente. It has bathing section but was closed last week because of a growth of blue algae. It is being dealt with so swimming should be possible next time you visit.
I haven't been to Planet Crocodile. Maybe I've watched too many episodes of The Simpsons but I find the idea of a crocodile theme park using the warm outflow water from the nuclear power station next door deeply worrying!
You may have already tried it, but I can heartily recommend Créperie Brouard, which offers a very wide variety of freshly cooked crépes and salads. It's by the banks of the Gartempe, on the Cité de l'Ecrit side of the old bridge in the middle of town.
