I am thinking that is a very good policy. When we do our planning, such as it is, we are always way to optimistic about how much ground we can cover and the result of that is trains. Trains are nerve racking!

Oh how timely! A neighbor has a acquired a Dalmatian dog and named him “Salvador Dali” :)

Looks like a giant smile )

And photo!

Love the CN on the boat—the dog :)

The rewards of cycle touring are experiences like this. What a great day. Love the picture of you and Keith on the 💋 lips.

Another great collection of photos 👍 Awesome to connect with Pierre again…love to see him in Victoria!

Al always “lets” me do all the route planning so it can never be his fault it turns out harder than expected. I enjoy it, though. The hardest part is cramming it in to the time allotted. I want to go everywhere!

There is a chance that we too will hit Arles on a Wednesday. Hope so!

I hadn't read this post until you mentioned it today. Type 2 fun read!

Thanks Karen. I really didn’t notice that until you pointed that out. I now see a big inverted column over the altar.

There was a light breeze but it was quiet. Now I wonder what it would be like in the wind!

Hi Barry - they are both Arcteryx. Expensive but worth it . I like the hig hood that you goes over the helmet which you can zip right up. Kathleen’s first one started to fray at the hood after 5 years. They replaced it free of charge. It’s my 2nd one too. I didn’t need to replace it but couldn’t resist a 50% discount and liked the color. Safe travels in Japan!.

First the wet streets and now the shadows; just great!

Great photo!!
