You know its amazing, I update here, where internet connections are few and far between more than I do at home! The trip is great, I have been with my friends from texas the whole way. we are currently in lourdes, this absolutely amazing religious mecca.
I am really suprised with the lack of americans over here compaired to years prior, I know support was bound to drop with the departure of lance, but the are not more than just a handful here.
As I was hitchhiking up plateau d'beille, I saw a car covered in "go levi"s. I jumped out and started chatting with them, turns out they are levi's family, My group and I ended up camping with them, very cool family, super nice.
here are a few photos of the stage on the mountain and the day before.
