1 day before the Tour startet Steven or Esteban how we call him now,  decided to take the guided City Tour through Barcelona and so we spend the entire day in this beautiful lively city

Today we made a Loop from Pamplona to San Sebastian. We went as well twice to France and had a beautiful riding day. After 330 km and hundreds of curves everybody arrived safely and happy back 

Morning impressions

it got a bit chilly and some needed a pullover for their bones

arrived in San Sebastian

the typical and famous Tapas of San Sebastian. Nobody could resist.

Unfortunatly the weatherforecast was predicting rain - however we have been equipped adequatly and the mountains and the little french villages  are as well qiuite charming .. and the cafe au lait tasted double as good as normal.

everybody is studying the daily route...

Photostop somewhere in the Pyrenees...

Today we climbed the Col Tourmalet the highest pass in France and one of the highlights of the Tour. The weatherforecast predicted rain and fog and when we arrived at the top we have been surprised by the first snowfall of the year.....So we had to wai for 1 hour before we could continue our Journey. Wonderful scenery very unexpected and everybody had so much fun seeing the first snowflocks...
