Annecy, FRANCE

"Mom and dad...you promised we would travel if we moved to Switzerland!!!"
So we took our first trip to to Annecy, France
We arrived in Annecy around lunch time to perfect pic-nic weather.  It was a perfect day!  We had our lunch on the deck of our hotel "Hôtel du Château" which was literally "the hotel next to the castle".  You can see it in the background behind Shawn and Soren.



We visited the "Palais de l'isle" which wasn't really a palace at all...it was a prison and also where they made coins for a while.  It is really an island.

Thank goodness for modern day kitchens!!!


 
This looks like the house that Madeline lived in...in two little lines...
"WE LOVE ANNECY FRANCE!!!"



Sun going down...night on the town!!!






 Delicious pizzas and pastas for dinner!

 You can see the kids at the window!  We had a perfect accommodations - big family room for the kids 
and a double room next door for Shawn and I!
 View from the hotel room window of the castle.
Breakfast!!! Quiche!!!

The BEST waffles with Nutella in the world!!!  Or with ice-cream, as Soren had hers!

  1. Davis darling... I am disappointed that I didn't see you jumping in the air with Shawn! Those Patchell girls can sure put some air between them and the ground. So much fun. Thanks for the posting!
