When a friend drops round for coffee & brings a whole shelf from the local patisserie with them! Yum!

Large brocante & market in Sommieres. Coffee with treats from patisserie. Chocolate & raspberry tart was top notch!

Hourquette d'Ancizan & Col d'Aspin in the sun! Don't mind the cloudy valley beyond - gonna call this a success! grin

Cool TdF themed cake box from a local patisserie. Sorry, no pics of contents - they were gone in a flash! Nom!

TdF Soulor+Borderes but no Hautacam due to crowds. Still great day out & home in time to see live with a cold one grin

Morning pastries & coffee. No hablo espanol, so NFI what I ordered... but it looked good & was indeed delicious!

Decided mid-ride to add more kays but didn't bring enough fuel. Luckily this is why the patisserie was invented!

Only 2 hours in & first bakery craving shot of the trip! Quick stop for snack of quiche & gateau basque. Nom!

Parisien coffee stop. Coffee? Blergh! But at least you can't go wrong with the accompaniment in a patisserie

Galeries Lafayette Gourmet: beautiful food at silly prices. Couldn't choose between the meats so left empty handed

Patisserie didn't have the cake we wanted (it's not strawberry season). Oh well, will have to pick something else!

More French hardship: tough choices to make in the patisserie BTW, we went the gateaux fraise & it was to die for!

Treats for our picnic desert picked up at a very nice patisserie in Arudy. Nom, nom, nom!
