Grenoble—Day 2
Today was our second full day. It is a holiday so many shops are closed. We took this opportunity to find a public laundry and do a load of wash. Afterward, we walked the center of the city and enjoyed winding our way along the narrow streets of the old town. It was a quiet day for us and Grenoble as lots of folks extended today's (Thursday) holiday through the weekend.
 |
| Our complimentary breakfast, like the one at Silberhorn in Lauterbrunnen, is quite substantial. Lots of options and a fabulous coffee machine. |
 |
| Gotta love the Internet. We found a public laundry two blocks from our hotel where it cost $7.80 to wash and dry a load. Our hotel charges $8.50 to launder one shirt. |
 |
| Street life outside the laverie. |
 |
| More street life. As you can see, it's quiet—you can tell it's a holiday. |
 |
| The washing machine instructions were pretty straight forward. |
 |
| This tunnel through the building leads to a park and playground. |
 |
| St. Andre |
 |
The church bells hime on the hour and half hour. |
 |
| Just liked this door. |
 |
| More of Grenoble's old town. |
 |
| The sign on this bakery says they make bread daily with love. |
 |
Les Halles public market. Of course, it's closed for the holiday. |
 |
| Just liked this door frame. |
 |
| One of many squares in old town. |
 |
| It rained in and out today. |
 |
| Where we had a light supper before calling it a day. |
