Day 5: Sanremo - Conbloux

Without being able to confirm accommodation for a reasonable price in Cagliari and after acknowledging the prohibitive ferry prices to Sardenna at this time of the year, we decided to head directly to the French Alps. To Conbloux, to be more precise. Isabelle, a good friend from the time I was in the International Board of the European Law Students’ Association (she was our President) and her boyfriend, Nico, welcomed us on Isa’s amazing Chalet, just in front of the Mont Blanch (I will dedicate later on a post solely to Conbloux and the Chalet).

It was again a long drive, but the 2cv seemed to have guessed that homeland France was again in our way. He proudly entered France again on a very steady speed average through the Mont Blanch Tunnel, dealing afterwards in style the long downhill till Salanches and the steep uphill to our final destination. He was determined to prove our sceptical French friends the magnificence of the finest French technology piece of art ever!

P.S.- A bed, at last!!!
