Cycling Around Grenoble

Another post so soon! It must be some sort of miracle or freak of nature or who knows what.. Anyways, sometimes during the day I think of really good ideas to write about (really) but then by the time it's night time and I actually have some time to write on here then I usually forget everything. Oh well.. But the reason I'm doing another post SO soon is because I got the pictures off my phone (and on to my computer) that have been on there for a while and so it seemed like a good idea to put some of them on here.

Most of the pictures are from our bike rides but there are a couple of Instagram standard Will-and-Sandi posing-like pictures that I liked so I'll start with those. Standard Sandi-sitting-at-a-table picture at a café in Grenoble:

Me in front of some new-age-ish architecture in Grenoble:

The bike path that goes along the Isère:

And again:

This was after a huge wind storm. Tons of giant trees had fallen down in the night and obstructed passage on the bike path. This is just one example (you can see the guy carrying his bike over the tree in the background). However, a few fallen trees didn't stop us (or others) and to give you an idea about how good they are with keeping these things maintained, the paths were completely cleared the next day:

Some mountains:
