The day after we got back from Paris we went for a cruise on a boat to Montreux
The boat departed from Ouchy, a very populare lakeside area in Lausanne
The boat was originally a steam ship which was built in 1910 (!). They still maintain the propeller drive shafts and they were HUGE!
The cruise took us from Ouchy to various little piers along the way. We could see the cities, towns, and even villages perched on the mountain sides. It was a very windy day and Ariel and Nindya made the best of it!
The shores of Lac (Lake) Geneve was very picturesque!
We passed Château de Chillon (Castle Chillon) which was built in the year 1005!
Arriving in Montreux we did some shopping. Ariel and Andrew got genuine Swiss watches from oom Chondro. They cost 3 times more than dad's watch so they promised to wake up and shower on time from then on :)
