ANNECY IN THE ALPS

There's not a lot to do in Annecy, France, but it's a charmer.  There's a beautiful lake here with Alps as a backdrop, and lots of swans gracing water so clear that you can see the lake bed.


There's a canal that runs into and out of the lake through the picturesque old part of town.


I got out early this morning to explore before the streets got crowded and enjoyed a quiet walk along the entire length of the canal.  Come walk along with me.










Walk across one of the several foot bridges crossing the canal and through the old stone tunnels to the street running parallel to the canal where there are shops and restaurants galore waiting for tourists with euros to burn in their pockets.


I'd rather watch the swans!
