Hi,
Today I thought I would tell you about the three trips we did, one was to Gruyere, here we saw how the Gruyere cheese was made and then to the village for lunch, The cheese is turned everyday by a robot, see the photo of the cheese store above, we were given a free sample each.

The village of Gruyere where we had lunch
We also did a visit to Charlie Chaplins home, and his museum which was his former home now made into the museum, I think I am a bit young because I dont remember much about him and the films he made, the guild was very knowledgable but she kept on about films that I had not seen or perhaps had seen as a young child and I did not remember, in the end it became a little boring, and we were not the only ones who lost interest. never mind it was a beautiful house and here is a photo of his garden.
Three interesting places, I think we enjoyed the chocolate factory ther most and tasting sdamples as we went around.

Cheese and chocolate, sounds good to me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful trip you had Margaret, you saw some beautiful scenes and the cheese factory is very interesting as is Charlie Chaplin. I am not of that era either Margaret but grew up with people who talked of him and my dad would laugh so much at his films. Lucky lady. xx
