We picked up our rental car in Grenoble France and headed out with our map of France and a few highlighted points of interest that were suggested to us from Sophie. We headed west towards Toulousse were we will meet the Baxleys on Sunday pm and continue with the tour. We enjoyed the beautiful country side and after driving for 5 hours stumbled upon this 2 star hotel. The owner told us there were no rooms, but when we sat down with him to watch the end of the tour stage on his Tv and Phil told him he was a cyclist and showed him his tan lines, he said he actually did have 1 small room we could look at. So wahla we were in and had a lovely meal which he cooked himself. Phil ordered the steak and was served a RAW piece of hamburger, WOW and some
RAW egg yoke to go with it, and of course he ate it and is still up and running 2 days later. WE are in Espana now, I haven't been back here in 30 years since I lived in Sevilla for 4 months in 1980. So nice to understand the language and communicate with everyone a bit easier, no more raw steak for dinner since we can read the menu! Overlooking the Mediteranean and a few groceries for breakfast! Adios Y Vaya con Dios!

Looks like you guys are having the time of your lives, I hope Beau and I can travel some day like you guys...Dad, keep kickin' butt out there, I know you always do.
