Rest day
Cloudy with late showers max 18deg.
Had a great breakfast of eggs, sausages, bacon, fruit,
yoghurt and nice coffee.
Spent the day just wandering around this interesting city
with some great photo opportunities, or in my room sorting gear, answering
emails and just enjoying the moment. As
it was Sunday it was fairly quiet around the city. The Constance Triathlon was held this day and
it looked a very big affair with lots of competitors of all shapes, sizes and
ages. The blocked streets and lack of
traffic made for a great family day out with people out with kids on bikes and
just enjoying family time.
Constance has a great deal
of history also, with more evidence of prehistoric pile dwellings settlements
dating back 5,000 years. I saw an
interesting reconstruction of one of these houses near the lake, along with a
mighty cathedral and many historical and modern buildings.
Went back to my room for a supermarket bought lunch as
I couldn't seem to find what I wanted in cafes; yes I am fussy what I eat!
I've been buying my lunches and dinners most days at the supermarket. The
day I arrived I bought enough for 3 days and it cost about A$22, that works out
to just over $3 per meal, which includes wine for dinner. I got some smoked salmon, frankfurts, tinned
fish, carrots, sour kraut, olives, fruit, goat’s cheese and yoghurt. I
can then eat when and what I want. The buffet breakfast was included in
the price of the motel. The language barrier also sometimes makes it hard to
order anything special out at restaurants.
