Today was another rest day. We did what we usually do on our rest days - nothing much.
We spent a bit of time looking at the view from our accommodation |
We did venture out for a bit of a walk, through Grandvaux and down to the lake at Cully.
Some of the sights of Grandvaux. The statue is of Corto Maltese, a famous cartoon character created by local resident Hugo Pratt |
A pleasant stroll down to Cully, on Lake Geneva |
At Cully, we had a picnic lunch by the lake, and wandered through the town's streets.

From Cully, we made our way back to our accommodation, and proceeded to rest for the rest of our rest day.

So, after another relaxing rest day, we are refreshed and ready to resume our walk tomorrow.
We enjoyed the view of the vineyards and the lake from our rest day accommodation |

Poem of the Day:
VIEW FROM THE BALCONY
Terraced vines on slanting slope
Buffeted by gusts and gale
Towns dotted along shore, outlined by
Evening sun piercing cloudy veil
Above: houses, sprawling village
Below: boats sailing slowly out of sight
Lake - sparkling and subdued
Shadow interspersed with light
Day 75 artworks were amazing, day 76 resting photos awesome. You must be getting close to the end of this adventure sadly. So glad you are making so many memories upon memories..... and with added poetry 🙂
