After all the riding
we've done over the last few days, we were glad to spend some time
off the bikes and explored Chambéry
on foot. A very interesting city with a well preserved medieval city
centre.
Just
about every postcard of Chambéry
features the 'sculpture
with the elephants',
so here's a photo.
Again
it was a very hot, sunny day, and we saw 34°
on one display.
We
bought some things in a local supermarket and had a picnic lunch at
tables outside our hotel.
By
late afternoon, it had cooled a bit so some of us went for runs on
our bikes. I explored some of the lower passes near Chambéry,
and basically rode around at random seeking out interesting looking
roads.
This
was a good rehearsal for some of the higher passes I intend riding
tomorrow.
Song
of the day:
