Travelled: 25km
Stay: Saluzzo Aire free N44°38'14" E7°29'49" /44.63726, 7.49694
We travelled through fields of fruit trees on our way to Saluzzo. We spent a lovely day wondering around the cobbled streets. Firstly we walked through the huge weekly market in the main street. We had the best croissant and coffee so far and so cheap at 5.40eu (2 coffees and 3 croissant)!. Who said Europe was expensive? We are getting ripped off in Australia. The price difference is possibly due to the wages. We then had a look in the Gothic Cathedral of Saint Mary. The interior is beautifully painted.

We then climbed 130 steps to
the top of a watch tower and had a great view of the town but the surrounding
area was very smoggy.
After our regular stair training we visited the museum in
a Renaissance building of Casa Cavassa. The rooms had some interesting antique
furniture and fine frescoes, friezes and coffered ceilings.
After a pizza for
lunch we walked some more around town and were impressed with how clean it was and how well dressed the people where. We enjoyed watching people while sitting on a bench in the main square.
Talking of nice clothes, what a prtetty blouse you are wearing too. Pizza leaves a bit to be desired though.
