Last Sunday, Claire and Momo celebrated the 20th birthday of their favorite nephew over Vevey.
The view on the Lake of Geneva is magnificent ; when they arrived, the weather was beautiful, then it became stormy. Look at the third photo, do you see how the color of the water changed ?
As we told you, Claire had a great big migraine on Monday. On Tuesday, she had more or less recovered, and took care of the garden with Momo.
On Wednesday, Claire and Momo went to Evolène. The godmother of Claire is Swiss but lives in Paris ; she comes every year to recharge in the pretty village of Evolène. To arrive there, it’s necessary to rise in the mountain over Sion, in the Val d’Hérens.
Halfway, we can see the pyramids of Euseigne : these curious cones were formed by the degradation of moraines further to the last glaciation, during the successive retreats of the glaciers which were there between -10000 and -80000 years.
Finally, it’s the arrival to the village ; its typical character was protected, and you need to walk there to appreciate all its charm. The landscape surrounding is magnificent, and multiple walks are to be planned to discover it.
On Monday, we’ll show you one of the most extraordinary places of Switzerland : good weekend !
Absolutely beautiful photos of beautiful places. The way the water color changed and those pyramid cones, the villages and mountains from afar and those gorgeous, charming buildings, all just beautiful. Thank you for sharing all this with us!
Stunning photos! Mum really wants to visit Lake Geneva.
Beautiful pictures! We really have nothing like it in the States. I’d love to visit again – my family traveled about Switzerland when I was in elementary school – but we didn’t go to Lake Geneva. The mountains are truly breath-taking!
