Calm Before the Storm…or Le Tour

I was up bright and early for the 7 a.m. bus into Bastia wondering whether there’d be much happening there..well as it turns out there wasn’t..should have gone for a ride instead – although there were clearly lots more people arriving in town for the race the following day .. and as the morning wore on, it became quite cool (at least for me ) and there were a few spots of rain…

so I got the 12 noon bus back, and treated myself to nice lunch of moules frites,Corsican orange cake…washed down with some nice cooling wine, ready for an afternoons snooze..

the sea had become rough during the day, being whipped up by a strong wind, so swimming was out anyway..ah well early night, ready for the big day tomorrow…Good night, and Bonne Chance to all our British cyclists..
