At last a rest day!
After constantly living out of a suitcase it was going to be bliss to be in the same hotel for three nights!
The second rest day of the Tour this year is in Pau, with the stage after the rest day starting there before the summit finish on the Col du Tourmalet.
To be honest I was expecting Pau to be any great shakes (particularly given the rout we had taken into the town at the end of the previous days stage) but it turned out to be quite a charming town with plenty of places to eat and drink.
Thankfully this rest day was far less eventful than the one at Morzine and after catching up on some much needed sleep and having a decent feed outside in a nice square my most strenuous activity of the day was giving my bike some much needed TLC on the square outside our hotel.
More food and then an early night before another big Pyrenees stage in the morning....
