Woke up at eleven and called chris(CS rugieros' friends friend) and found out im meeting him to watch the tour de france at 1 pm. Mohammad went out and grabbed bread for breakfast and then he was going to his sisters and i was going to watch the tour de france. Climbed up the seven flights of stairs to his apartment to meet his girlfriend catalina and then she made lunches quick and we were off to a nearby park to get spots on a bridge over the tour de france bike trail. We took the 14 metro to the park and there were no spots on the first bridge so we took the second bridge so we had front row seats.
other people started joining us at about 145. the advertisements started at 2pm and lasted about 45 minutes. there were various things including laundry detergent, water, candy, g
rocery store chains, communist groups etc. Then we enjoyed our bottle of red and the lovely sandwiches while we waited another 2 hours for the bikers. they came and were gone in the blink of an eye but it was still really cool to see.
then we went and grabbed gelato-- i had lemon and coconut and then decided to rent bikes and go biking around a nearby park. it was already five pm. biked for a couple hours
to the fort of vincents or something like that and then headed to a nearby pub for some nice conversation before chris and catolina put me on a metro to find mohammad. Walked and found mohammad then went to a nearby french restaurant where i had duck, auggratten potatoes salad and creme brulee for dessert. mmmm packed my bags and am lined up wiith meeting my host in barcelona. hopefully its a good day tomorow too!
