Tour de France



This was taken about half way up the switchbacks when we broke out of the hazy clouds of the valley. The building looked like an old monastery that was built on a precarious bluff on the side of the mountain. After we stopped, we weren’t so sure what the building was, but the views were spectacular. By the way, the climb up the mountain is one of the more brutal legs of the Tour de France bicycle race. I can’t imagine being able to climb it on a bike after already pedaling over 100 kilometers.
