Montreux - too early for Jazz
While I was in Switzerland I spent a day out at Montreux, ala the famous Montreux Jazz Festival, except I was a bit early for it. About 6 months early. It was such a gorgeous little town right on Lake Geneva. I can see why so many famous artists/musicians/writers have lived there during their lives. Queen were based there, Charlie Chaplin, King of the Netherlands had a house there, Tchaikovsky stayed there for a bit and the list goes on.
For lunch I had fondue of two swiss cheeses and white wine. For those that don't know what fondue is, it's a big pot of melted cheese that you dip bread in and eat. Nice. What was just as nice though was the view, see below.
