Villeneuve to Evian

Abandoning Courbet's old town and resolving to drop in on Kokoscka's (Vevey) we retrace our steps to Lausanne to catch the ferry to Evian and take the waters. The way seems short and the lunchtime swan unusually grumpy. We enjoy the day embarking with all the tweeds one of whom we are to meet again at dinner. 37 minutes later we are disembarqued beside an enormous Casino. Finding the now French Office du Tourisme is easy and shortly we are ensconced in a two star with free whiffy and magic a lift. The bikes are packed away in la salle des pamphlets and the manager fluent.

Dinners Pizza oven is inspiring and brings a flush to our cheeks, We will stay again tomorrow as sheila is under the weather and we need to get our bearings.
