Swiss Castles & Vineyards (Day 6)

View Europe 2008 on cre8ive's travel map.

Our last day in Switzerland, so we took it easy. Drove through vineyard country. It was a beautiful scenic drive around Lake Geneva. Got a little lost during the way but it wasn’t all bad, as we got to see a lot more lovely vineyards.

We then drove on through to Vevey and Montreux and visited the Chateau De Chillion. A castle on Lake Geneva. We went into the dungeons where Lord Byron was kept during his imprisonment, the entertaining halls, several courtyards, chambers, chapels and guards towers. It was our first visit to a castle!

We went home to a great dinner with the Swiss crew (our last one :( with them)
