End of Week Two in France

Yesterday we had our first fireside with a ward group in Annemasse, France, about a two hour drive from Lyon right on the border with Geneva, Switzerland.  Since the fireside was in the evening, we went a few hours early and visited the little village of Ivoire, France, right on Lac Leman or Lac Genève depending on where you are from.  Ivoire is a beautiful little "Ville Fleurie" or flowered village.  With its setting on the lake, this has to be one of the most beautiful places ever!

Since today is Saturday we set out on foot to find an open air marché.  We ended up finding two!  So at the second one, the Marché St. Antoine, right along the quay of the Saône River, we bought a few things for our lunch including peaches, a multi-grain baguette, two different cheeses and some exotic olives.  I love the marchés!

    1. Coucou Fabienne,
      We want to come see you Friday, October 28. We have a meeting in Chambery that night and wondered if we could take you to lunch? Your e-mail address that I have no longer seems to work. Please let us know. We would love to see you!

  2. It's too bad you got called to such an ugly, not very culturally diverse place.
