More Beautiful Annecy

We ventured into town our second day there, taking the ferry from Jorioz up the lake to Annecy.
The old chateau overlooking the town







Quay-side and street scene; we had lunch somewhere along
here, a formula lunch so large neither of us could finish; in
my case I simply tired tweezering the tiny French moules
from their shells...







We located the marzipan shop we both had been impressed
by in 1993; of course, having seen the one in Lubeck, five
stories and marzipan museum, we are no longer quite so
impressed













But we were impressed with the cookie shop














Very impressed












The harbor and international park; Annecy is a finalist for
the coming Winter Olympics






A beautiful setting and place
