Preparation for vacation

I'm getting ready for my vacation trip at Le Grand Tour 2008 (15th edition, my fourth).

I just made sure I could still erect the tent in a timely fashion. I can... even under windy condition. I should have taken a picture!

The goal this year is 700Km in 7 days. It shouldn't be too difficult, especially if we can get nice weather. For what it's worth, they forecast nice weather for the whole week in the region i'll be visiting. Health is good, so hopefully i'm not going to be sick during the tour (like 3 years ago).

Future posts will most probably be in French (I'm on vacation afterall!)

Here are some pictures from the 2004 Grand Tour

I call this one "Roadway to Heaven"



















This one gives you an idea of what the Grand Tour looks like;
