Lillet

Bordeaux is pretty interesting. Like a smaller Paris but far less pretentious. And, they serve a special appertif here only found in Bordeaux called "Lillet." It tastes like someone poured summer, fun and good cheer into a glass. Very nice.

For those following the Tour de France, this week was not a good one for Mr. Contador, who grabbed the yellow jersey in an unethical maneuver against his prime opponent Mr. Schleck. I'm not surprised after the antics Contador pulled last year. But, it would be great if Schleck could make up 30 seconds in the next few days and blow Contador away....
