Le Tour

It's been a while - that may be the first blog-free month since it began back in 2010!  Most of June was spent on holiday, of which more later once I've dealt with the many, many, many photos.

Our first weekend back in the UK was our chance to experience Le Tour de Yorkshire.  Yorkshire has been building up to the two stages for some time, and lots more had happened while we were away.  Bunting, yellow bicycles, and the like have sprung up everywhere, and most statues in Leeds seem to be sporting yellow jerseys.

It has been incredible.  The atmosphere on race days in the county has been brilliant, everyone at work on Monday was talking about it.  Two good days of weather helped Yorkshire to look absolutely stunning for everyone watching.  And going down to watch it all whizz past in Ilkley was super.  Marisca got a squishy cow and we got some Yorkshire The (with apologies that I can't seem to get accents on blogger...)

Here are a few photos.  Thank you to Claire for hosting!
