Grenoble


Friday 3rd June - Nice to Grenoble - Route Napoleon

Later start today left at 9am finally a sleep in. First a visit to a typical Provence Perfume in Grasse "Fragonard", most interesting. Yes Deb had to make some purchases. Today we will be traveling in the footsteps of Napoleon as he escaped from exile in Elbe. The Route Napoleon over the mountains steep winding narrow roads. Some truly amazing scenery today. Mountains little villages, stopped in one for lunch Castelliance and Sisteron for afternoon tea. Hotel in Grenoble is nice with new bathroom. Dinner at the hotel tonight and then for a walk. Debbie & Peter took the Cable Car to the Grenoble Bastille, well worth the ride. View was spectacular. 360 Degree view of the city from dusk to dark. Meet up with our tour director Sylvia who had gone up for her first look as well! Back to the Hotel about 11pm.
