back to bike holiday
Tearing ourselves away from the festival, which had two more days to go, but no hotel rooms (we were very lucky to get a room for one night), we set off east back to Annecy.
Why? Weather forecast was better for that area... and I was trying to sneak back up to the mountains ... tee-hee-hee.
We headed to St Jean en Royans, staying well south of Lyon (because its a big city, and big cities are all the same).
Now, the knowledgeable amongs you might think, thats where the col-du-machine is .... and he has been there as well this year.
True ... but I never saw it properly .... and didnt go back to it anyway. Stayed in lovely room in St Jean for the night. A bit dead compared to the previous night, but hey-ho ... one needs ones rest ... well, Louise did. Sleeps more than a cat, that woman.
Back to Annecy where the weather was lovely, and the roads heading there even better.
A pass from Lac Du-Bourg (where the porsche vid was took) was great, and the relaxing swoopy bit after it just as nice in a different way.
Got to Annecy and booked into same hotel.
Nobody noticed!!
At least I wasnt the only sad single bastard roaming about town anymore. I had a partner with me. I was a couple. So we could sit outside a posh romantic restaurant together. Chatting, watching the world go by and drinking wine.
Nope .... we got a pizza, because Madam wasnt hungry. Still sat outside with a Picher of vino though.
Took lots of 'in the dark' photos again ...so must have been half pissed!
Next day, just up the road to Dijon.
