Day 43

Today was a rest day.  I spent most of the day booking hotels all over France after the route for the 2011 Tour was announced this morning.  I managed to find hotels in almost every town I wanted, except for the mountains and rest day towns... those were pretty much all sold out by the time I looked (within hours of the route being released).  Getting pretty damn exciting though!  Even planning to camp out after riding up Alpe d'Huez and staying at the top until the race gets there the next day!
