Thanks, Helen. I'll see if my husband can find the magazine out somewhere!

I might be repeating a link...forgive me if I'm being redundant.

I found some neat interactive maps of each stage of the tour.

Here's Stage 1.

I like the "print the trip" feature. The maps might be neat to print and study each day.

That's great Jen! I used the "print this trip" and a simiple line printed -- great for adding the names of important cities.

On my way to the doctor's office today, I stopped in at a Walden bookstore (same parent company as Borders) on the sale bookcase they had a French cookbook.

I found a similar recipe on line for Toulouse sausage with Puy lentils: Recipe

Is the tour going through Puy this year?

Here's a link to the Cathedral of Our Lady of Puy.

This is fun!!

Thinking parallel thoughts!!

We're excited the Tour begins today, too, and I was hoping someone would bump this thread!! And I CANNOT think of the Tour de France without thinking of Helen!!

Anyone else cheering for the Schleck brothers?? They're favorites of my son!

Thinking nice thoughts (and prayers) for my far away friends!
I really *have* to get my Tour de France map out from its hiding place. This will be the first year in about ... how many years... that we didn't follow the Tour.

I was excited to see the Tour going through Brittany this year. Do you have any fun recipes to try? or other fun tips?
