What is described will work, and will work well.
There is another way to do this, if you are planning to have more than
two end-points, is you set up the 6to4 addresses on the routers, and
then just add routes to each other. (It just scales better, but if you
have only two sites, Martin's suggestion is as good or better)
This has the advantage that it also gives you connectivity to the
2002: addresses directly, which are somewhat popular among IPv4-only
home users.
