Burgundy


Tonight we have a "premier cru" from Fixin (Burgundy).

This morning I left rainy Bellinzona and drove 5hrs back north to Beaune, France. First off Beaune is Burgundy's wine capital and is situated just south of Dijon and north from Lyon. Things are looking up for me. I'm resting in a small hotel overlooking the famous vinards and enjoying some wine. I'm also looking forward sleeping in a bed and getting some rest to prepare me for Fontainebleau for the coming week. After that I will head back south to compete at the World Cup in Fiera di Primiero. If the weather can cooperate for the next week I will be psyched again to climb and compete. bonne journee! GL
