paris, tu me manques

I've been back from Paris for a few days now, with a suitcase full of delicious stuff (chocolate! caramel sauce!), time spent with some new friends (Ryan van Duzer! The Grubers!), good memories made with old friends (Alex W.! Dave Chiu!), and a nasty cold that's turning into walking pneumonia (I haven't stopped coughing since the Tour ended). 

But here's some stuff I was up to while I was in Paris...

bienvenue...

A Paris.

It's been months in the planning, and only a few nearest and dearest were privy to this secret trip, but I am currently in Paris. No, I can't believe it myself.
There is a final Tour stage just around the corner, and a few friends - old and new - to meet. I'll tell you all about it. But for now, some charcuterie sounds really nice...
