We did nothing
and it was great. No anyway, we have had a great past few days with Shane and the Bougnols. There is no better way to experience a country than to live with the people and do it the way locals do it. We spent yesterday on the beach playing paddle ball with Manu. The water was freezing but we swam anyway. The Bougnols house in Cap D'Agde is wonderful, it is about 10 yards from the beach and there is a nudist colony about 100 yards down on the beach. I rode a bike around the Cape yesterday and did my best to talk to a few people. Shane, Manu, Tyree and I ended up going out for awhile after our dinner last night. We got in around 330 and got up at 730 to go to the starting line of todays stage of leTour de France. We waited for about 4 hours in the hot sun this morning. There was a long parade and then we got to watch the riders for about 10 seconds as they flew past us. It was very cool and we both got some good shots. Sure enough today, in the smallest town we have been in, we run into 4 more people from Auburn. It was absolutely absurd. There was a group of 91 of them studying in Salamanca and they came up to see Lance. They had a big American flag and bringht orange Auburn shirts. So then we left,.....and we were supposed to go to Florence to meet up with some girls we met from UGA, but all the trains were full and we didnt want to spend the night in Nice, so instead we hopped on a train headed for Geneva, Switzerland. We got here about an hour ago and checked into a fairly nice hotel on the strip next to the train station. We are staying here for just tonight and tomorrow we head to the Adventure sports capital of the world...Interlaken!!!!!!!! Sweet eh? So yea this is long enough and we are going out for beers. I will update from Interlaken hopefully tomorrow or the next day. Keep on truckin, good stuff.
