As we don't have a car and there are regular bus lines from Geneva to Annecy, we thought that it would be a great idea to spend the day there and play tourists. What a lovely way to spend our day!
So, we arrived quite early in the morning, walked around the pretty old town and the stunning lakeside, enjoyed the beautiful landscapes and architecture, went to the fruit & veggie market (phew, the crowd is extreme during the holiday time), bought lots of goodies (dried Savoie sausages, spices, wine, oils, etc...), ate a delicious Reblochon Quiche and a slice of Opera Cake at "Le Péché Mignon" (highly recommended), refreshed ourselves with passionfruit, violet & raspberry and cherry sorbet ice creams that we bought from a little chocolate/candy store situated in the Passage de la Cathédrale and had a jolly good time.
I hope that you'll enjoy the pictures I took. I really had fun shooting them!
