Mont Ventoux

Today we climbed Mont Ventoux - well it was rather like a crawl up the hill. It took me 2.45hrs, which wasn't bad I guess, it was a long, brutal climb and was thinking that I wasn't going to make the 21kms but I did and I was a great view from the top as well as very cold!

First view of the "moonscape" - still about 10km from the summit


The Chalet at 6km to go


The view from the summit


So high up and very cold - about 6 degrees

Later on in the evening we went to Avignon for a bit of a look around and dinner
