Just a quick update now we have found some decent wifi after being on the road for a couple of weeks! We had a flying visit back to UK to visit my mum and our daughter, then when we got back to Spain Brian found details of a cycle race in northern Italy called the Giro del Trentino which Bradley Wiggins was using as a warm-up for the Giro d'Italia, so we had 3 days to get there!! Cervantes surpassed himself on the journey. We saw Brad on two mountain top finishes and we were the only Brits up there! Got to speak to him as well!
After that we planned to see the Italian lakes and then head for home, but we heard of yet another cycle race, this time in northern Switzerland called the Tour of Romandie and Mark Cavendish and Chris Froome were going to be competing, so we headed throught the Simplon Tunnel on a car train and here we are in a place near Sion surrounded by snow-capped alpine peaks - beautiful.
More updates when we find a good connection-if not, we'll do a full itinerary when we get home!
