June 30th is the official start of the "Tour De France." This is a bicycle race where the riders ride thru France. It takes about 1 month for this race from start to finish. Mike has loved watching this race for years. So, in honor of the "Tour" starting, Mike and I had our own tour of sorts. We called it the "Tour de Greenbelt." We rode our bikes from our house along the river to Julia Davis park downtown. There we ate chicken salad on croisants, fruit salad, and had grape juice mixed with Perrier water! (very French.)
For dessert, we had napoleans! (Also very French)
YUM!!!...............
Now we get to spend the rest of the month watching the race and the Pelaton! Which Mike says is loosely translated from french to mean, "alot of bike riders, riding very fast and very close together, each one fervently praying the guy in front of him doesn't crash!"
Viva la Tour de France!
