While I had envisioned sleeping until 8:00 (at least), the internal body clock was set for 5:30. So, I caught up on the online copy of the Wilmington news while Gail slept soundly. The morning was spent going to the bike shop, pharmacy, and hotel fitness room for some upper body exercises. After a healthy lunch at Whole Foods, several of us took a 2-hour narrated trolley car trip around Boise. We learned all about the geothermal pools, the gold discovery of 1862, and the Oregon Trail.
Here is a picture of the city of Boise ....
And our trolley....
After a dinner of salmon (our last seafood for awhile), we headed back to the room to prepare for nine days of cycling before another rest day. Believe it or not, everyone seems pretty eager to get back to the ride. Personally, I am rather enjoying the rest days. :-)
