Travel Thursday: Lake Geneva

Last November Rob and I took a train down to Geneva from Paris. Just a wee day trip, but oh, it was so lovely. The train ride was the most beautiful thing - we spent most of the time climbing through autumn leaves and then even further up into snow covered trees and mountains. It was just stunning.

The day itself was very brisk, but we walked for hours and had lots of hot chocolate to warm us. At the end of the day we took a cruise on the lake and got some views of stunning properties. It was very cloudy, but just before we hopped back on the train it started to lift a little and we got some views of the flanks of Mt Blanc. Which, being thje rock geek I am I was most excited about.

Here are some pictures of our views of the lake... Enjoy!
































Makes me smile but also shiver looking back at these. But wow, such a beautiful place. I love how the architecture combined with the the cloudy day seems almost baroque style. Anyway, we had a lovely day. I am excited to share it with you.

And, if you have been around these parts for awhile, you will know that Travel Thursday is all about sharing your memories, near or far! So come hang out with Laurie and I and get sharing!!
