A trip into Lausanne and a walk around the lake

We were with Penny and Rob all day today and the weather was great.  In the morning Penny took us for a nice walk around Lausanne and its market. We returned to their house for lunch.  Lausanne is a very pretty City and we had a good walk around.  There was been a lot of new development in the last 10 years and an area with lots of old derelict warehouses now has them converted into trendy shops, wine bars, cinemas and so on.

We went for a walk near Lake Geneva in the afternoon with Penny and Daniel.  There is a beautiful beach around some parts of the lake and there was lots of people there enjoying the sun with barbecues and so on.  It's amazing how there is pretty much no litter in Switzerland.  I wish it was the same at home!

In the evening we had a barbecue back at Penny & Rob's.  Rob cooked lots of nice food rather expertly and it was nicely accompanied by some excellent salads.
