To get to the Savoy, the alternative to the Frejus tunnel is the pass of Mont Cenis. We leave the motorway at Susa (there are 36 ° in this torrid summer of 2003) It goes up in altitude, 2000 meters, and the temperature drops to 18 °, like being in paradise. The landscape is beautiful, above the artificial lake of Mont Cenis see even an eagle. We descend along the French side and make a stop in Lanslebourg, a small village with restaurants along the road and stone houses with balconies full of flowers. The sound of the creek is the only sound that makes us company during lunch. Continuing towards Modane, stop at Devil's Bridge
