We booked 3 nights in a B&B 5kms out of Alba partly because it is a restful spot that had very good reviews. We like to have a rest and a better look around every few days. Also around Alba is primo cycling and wine territory so we’re doing both.
Katharine is still not 100%, no wonder with the tough day yesterday, so just the 3 of us went into Alba. We negotiated getting a local bus back and forth although we mistakenly got the scenic route back. The centre of Alba is reserved for pedestrians so we wandered. There are lots of churches of course and we went in the main cathedral. It had some impressive history starting from the romans with multiple rebuilds along the way. A little man silently led us around to see the hidden treasures and finally to the donation box, of course.
Nella, our hostess, cooked a lovely 4 course meal for us and we were done for the day.
