We were in Annecy once but it was only for a few hours and during the winter. I would love to see it in the summer. The pictures I have seen are beautiful.

Wow, I loved seeing these photos. It reminds me a little of Annecy. I’ve never been to Lausanne but my husband spent most of his childhood there

Sissi,
Email on its way!

Might I add,
That is exactly it. I feel more at ease there. We didn’t stick out like we do here when we speak in English. So many people spoke another language than French that it was interesting and fun. I heard more languages being spoken in Lausanne than I did even in Strasbourg.

That is so cute and I can see where he thinks that. I love seeing through kids eyes.

Your pictures make Lausanne look very inviting. The bridge you were on for that one photo must have been very high!

Best of luck finding jobs there! My guess is you will feel like you fit in more there, if such a large percentage of the population comes from other places. I can’t wait to hear more about it.

Expatraveler,
We did get to pick up some outfits for my five year old who outgrew all of her summer clothes. It was kinda crazy with the soldes going on but the prices were worth the wait in line! :)
Lausanne is very nice and I really liked Morges too.

I’m glad you loved your visit in Lausanne. It has always been a very fun place for me to visit also. I love shopping there especially… And your pic of the lake, well it reaches all the way towards Montreux. I love all of the pics, so cute!
