Gratuitous butt shot! 

Faith gave us this hippo hoodie, which is quickly becoming his favorite. It's even better when he chews on the towel so that only his nose and eyes are visible. 

Ines and Dex - we think Dex is trying to bite Ines, but it's close enough to a cuddle to count. 

Here are Ines and Penny, Jackie's twin sister.  

This is the beginning of the 'caravan', a rolling hour long entertainment and marketing extravaganza that preceeds the actual cyclists. 

The finish and grandstand. As you can see, the crowd is something like 20 people deep. 

The Tour de France! This is the Place de Concorde, and if you look closely, you'll see the silver broadcast building, from which our old friends Phil Liggit and Paul Sherwan comment on the race. 

And here's Joshy! 

This is Dex's distant cousin Joshy. He's 1 week older, and he and Dex got along famously. Unfortunately, I was unable to get a pic with *both* of them smiling, so here's one of each! 

Dex and "DadDad" snoozing off Jet Lag.
