AMAZING VIEWS FROM RUSSIN

After having walked to Dardagny and had a good look around, we decided to go back to Russin where we would take the RER (regional) train back to the central train station, Geneva Cornavin...

But we did not want to go back home without having another peek at that quaint village and it's surroundings. It is such a lovely place that I no desire to leave without taking a more in-depth tour of it. No matter how small it is there are surprises waiting for you every time you turn a corner or enter a new street.

Despite the strong wind blowing and the biting cold, it was such a clear and splendid day that it would have been a pity not to profit from the stunning view as well as landscapes that were to be admired at that very moment. The Frecnh Alps were obcenely visible and the Mont Blanc was standing proud between the small and the big Salève (see picture n°2 from the top). When such a spectacle offers itself to your eyes, you have to stare with amazment no matter how many times you've seen it all!
