I've always wanted to go to Yvoire. Just exciting to be able to say I went to France for the afternoon. Hour and fifteen minute ferry ride. Its a medieval tourist town known for its beautiful stone houses with flowers. We caught the 11:25 ferry there and 4:05 ferry home.

Ferry stop just 5 blocks from our apartment

| Inside pretty crowded so sat outside in children's' chairs/table |
 |
| Yvoire is famous for crepes. This 1 with goat cheese, another with Reblochon a strong local Savoie cheese |
 |
Delightful surprise! Pear cider, 3% alcohol, bubbly and flavorful! Served in china tea cups
We visited the Garden of 5 Senses & got to taste and smell & learn about medicinal properties of plants. Gave us lots of ideas for our balcony. |
 |
| Tasted the stevia |
 |
We bought ham and cheese home!

French flag in the front, Swiss on back. Until next time, sail away!
