Sunday June 28 While looking for our hotel and following the google maps directions, we some how ended up on a pedestrian/tram only road. We started getting a lot of strange looks and now I know why. That night we went for dinner at a restaurant called l`entrocote, no menu, just steak and chips, when they brought out our meal we all looked at each other like `that’s it?` as the steak was rather small, that was until they brought the large platter with the rem...
