Annecy - Wow! Just Wow! It's a town full of views - lake, mountains, forest, and more mountains! We've lately been looking for places to visit that leave you with a sense of magnificence - the nature of Annecy did this.
We spent just over a week here, in the Pre-Alps, at France's third largest lake. Our apartment was right at the edge of Old-Town; we could drive to the apartment parking garage, and walk* to any spot on our list.
Since the drive from Lyon didn't take long (1.5 hrs), we went directly to a beach to wait a bit before check-in time.
Then we returned the wheelchair and started packing...
