It's like waking up and seeing the Emerald City!

by skywalkerbeth - last update: Jan 7, 2005

A wonderful day...

I will post much more later, but my first impression when I woke up the next morning (late night arrival, by train, from Geneva airport) was just awestruck wonderment. The air was crisp and perfect. Sunny day, with the mountains as a backdrop over the sparkling lake. I had never been there before and didn't know the mountains were so close! I took a boat ride to Montreux and walked along the Promenade as far as I could until taking a boat the rest of the way to Vevey.

I try to get in at least one sightseeing boat ride on any trips I may take.

Pros:"clean, friendly, sunny, crisp, clear, good food, boats!"
Cons:"very expensive - lunch was almost 50 bucks at an outdoor cafe"
In A Nutshell:"A sparkling gem on Lake Geneva"

 Next time maybe you can spend a few days in Vevey and go in every direction. You're right, it's incredibly peaceful and pretty!
