Annecy is an alpine town in southeastern France, where Lake Annecy feeds into the Thiou River. It’s known for its Vieille Ville (old town), with cobbled streets, winding canals and pastel-colored houses. And let me tell you that cobbled streets are very darn slippery!! ⛸ Overlooking the city is the medieval Château d’Annecy which was once home to the Counts of Geneva. All streets leading up to the chateau are cobbled and even using the dog’s buggy as a Zimmer frame on wheels there was no way we could get up and we certainly would never have gotten back down again! 🏂⛷. Hopefully tomorrow it will have thawed out enough so we can go up and have a look.

There is a great buzz around the town and it is full of skiers. We had a lovely meal in a buzzing restaurant and the dogs were a big hit as they slept in their buggy 😎. Sheila was sitting facing all the other clients and felt we were old enough to be their mother 🙊. However, when I went to the loo I reckoned we were more like their grannies 👵🏻
