after four more days in biarritz i was on the road again, travelling to paris to team up with my father.
we had this plan to do some cycling around the loire area. we started the next day from orleans.
to be honest the whole cycling idea was more the idea my father had when we planned a trip to france together.
suddenly i noticed that holidays and biking were’nt really what i expected it to be. to my defence the weather got quite windy not to say stormy and even my semi-pro biking daddy was a little surprised. nonetheless we ate great dinner and drank good wine every night. but i guess, that’s what france is about, right?
after three days when we made it near the city of tours we decided to go back to orleans by train. we stood another day in paris which was really great. it was my third time in paris but the first time i really found myself enjoying it. ok, the last time i’ve been there we got robbed while we slept in a park at pont neuf. that might very well be one reason for my ambivalent feelings for paris. anyway it was great.
finally on our way home we decided to take a route through belgium where we could visit the beautiful city of bruges. ever since that movie i wanted to go there to see what it’s like. i can tell it’s just like in the movie and maybe even better.
up next is a trip to california in march. maybe a little bit spring break in mexico? we’ll see…
