Tour De France

To start off our Bastille Day(France Independence Day), we made the day trip to Sete to see the Tour de France. After a quick 15 minute train ride, we arrived in Sete, a little fishing town on the water. Many of the stores and shops were closed for Bastille Day, but it seemed like an awesome town that I would spend time in.


After an awesome lunch, we walked down to the edge of the water and the caravan came through in early afternoon. Then, around 4, the bikers came through. It's amazing how fast they zoom through the streets. Although it only lasted few minutes, it was well worth it and was an awesome experience. It was a great start to Bastille Day! Here's a picture of the leader of this leg of the race.


Here's the video of the pack riding though!
