It's back: a perfect occasion to rediscover leisure possibilities among friends A few suggestions:Karting - tubes, wheels and a lawn mower engine: the kart was born. In 1951, on a United States Air Force base. It was necessary to wait until the sixties for the phenomenon to reach Europe. Nowadays, the karts can run at more than 100 km/h for a featherweight - a hundred kilos - and circuits are mushrooming just about everywhere in France. Circuits to be tried in the region:

Bowling – a thousand-year-old sport that originated in Egypt as a game comprising small alabaster vases and porphyry balls. Apparently, people in the 4th century also had tremendous fun in the Monasteries where skittles represented pagans, which were knocked over with stones to ensure the soul's salvation. But it was necessary to wait until the fifties and for the emergence of a “requiller” machine for bowling to become popular and appear in centres. An address in Annemasse:

The Laser Game – from the United States. Created about ten years ago, it is a simulation shooting game where several players clash with each other to win the highest points by striking as many opposing plastrons as possible without shooting one's own team members.
