HOLIDAYS - PART I

Last week, I was on "holiday". We stayed at home (no other possibility), but we had some good time nonetheless, ate well and relaxed (two of our favorite activities)...

Although we didn't travel far, last Saturday, we decided to go out for a walk in the Geneva countryside. So, on that sunny day, we took the bus to this beautiful place by the lake called Hermance (see my older post for more infos).

It is a one hour bus ride from Veyrier to Hermance which is a magnificent village situated in one of the most gorgeous parts of Geneva. There, I always feel as if I travelled to someplace by the sea!

Here is a foretaste of what's to come in part II (click on the pictures to enlarge)...

  9. Rosa, sometimes these vacations are the best. Too often our first impulse is to hop on a plane to some far away place but there is so much to discover right at home. Things we see and pass everyday, things we take for granted because we have never stopped to really look or explore.

    Can't wait for part II

  12. MARION: :-D!

    SHER: Yes, I agree with you, but when you can never travel anywhere, it very frustrating... We can maybe exchange places ;-P!!!

    PAPRIKAS: Contente de savoir que Genève te plaît!...

    CATHERINE: Where do you live? I hope that you'll like Geneva, then...

    MAMOUNETTE: C'est un plaisir pour moi de pouvoir te faire remonter le temps! Bises et bon dimanche!

    FLO: Merci :-D!

    CHRIS: Oui, tout à fait. Merci!

    MÉLANIE: Merci!

    CYNTHIA: You are right! Unfortunately, I've never been able to travel anywhere since a long time (I would always prepare my holidays, though). In that way, I have discovered many nice places here. But I need to see something else once in a while...

    BENISOU: Merci! Oui, c'est un endroit fantastique...

    MISS LOLA: Tu as raison! De beau weekends en perspective...
