A Taste of Annecy

It was a short enjoyable ride down quiet roads and bike paths to the beautiful city of Annecy. We were lucky to get to connect for the day with Gisèle, another university friend of Holly's Mom, and who had followed a similar career path as a French teacher. We had a delicious lunch at Gisèle's appartment overlooking the lake and caught up on many years, since Holly last saw Gisèle and her daughters Florence and Dominique as a teenager. After a good nap for Claire, we were back at the Annecy beach in the afternoon, this time for a swim under sunny skies. We enjoyed the lakeside ambiance again for dinner with Gisèle at the Brasserie de l'Imperial and appreciated her gastronomic guidance as we learned about different dishes that we hadn't been exposed to yet. And the desert buffet was a cyclist's dream!Meer informatie
