We took a self-guided tour of a Medieval Castle, now the Chateau Musee. It's towers, stairways, lookouts gave a good sense of life in the 1600s. Priya got some new ideas for her bunk bed, after seeing some of the one used by the castle dwellers. The gardens have a good view of the city below.
The bells of Notre Dame Cathedral draw us back into the charm of Old Town - ringing on the hour, until 7pm - bold and melodic at the same time.
Old town is full of roadside restaurants that serve a variety of foods - pizzerias, creperies, bistros, candy shops (cest beau!), wineries, icecream parlors serving La Glace! Priya enjoyed the caramel, mint chocolate flavors.... We stopped at Le Petrin for lunch of salad with goatcheese, spagetti, tiramisu and an ice cold Orangina - Awesome! Arun claimed this was the best Tiramisu, ever!
There are plenty of fountains and wells with clean water - we tasted it! Water seems to be a part of life here in Annecy.
