Summer heat!

Summer heat!

Can’t really complain about watching stage 19 from the deck when it’s 33°C and I’m resting a foot…

Stayed out here all day – until the stage was suddenly cut short. Talk about contrasts: hail, torrential rain, and a landslide shut things down just after Col de l’Iseran. And now everything’s back to normal—Sky/Ineos leading, of course.

The heat didn’t let up, not even in the evening… but hey, food is still a must.
