We have mountains here, and mountain roads, but they are generally arduous grinds with crap views. Picturesque ski villages are not to be found. I'll be arriving with cuski forthwith.
Thanks for the invitation!

I'm late to the party Botto but great looking photos. Looks like it was a nice weekend get-a-way.

Some old school art.
A healthy meal of Steak Tartar.
C'est fin, merci.

Aargh! I live here. well, about 30k east of Angouleme. I spent 3 months in Vilebois-Lavalette before moving near Chasseneuil
Anyone coming to watch the TdF as it does its stage finish at Angouleme and the TT Cognac/Angouleme?
