We said our final goodbyes to Switzerland on Saturday, leaving in the rain. The Swiss springtime was nothing like we expected. We thought we’d have March and April to cycle on the weekends in preparation, but between winter weather and springtime colds, our bodies are really not ready. So one last ride to the train station in the Swiss rain seemed like the fitting send off.
We had to fold our tandem for the TGV, so we have only gone 7km so far. We have been touring the south coast of France with our friends Bob and Don, the past few days. Taking in the famous sites, doing some great wine tasting – you know, the real kind where you go into the caves and warehouses sampling the latest vintages. Not the circus of multi-million dollar tasting rooms that CA and NY have become.
Today we head to our starting point in Montpellier, and will try to remember to take photos with the iPhone, so we can include them in this blog.
