A day out at Savines Le Lac

Today is our 6th wedding anniversary,

First of all thank you to my mum and dad, Jean and Gordon and also Sue's mum and dad, Janet & John for sending the wedding anniversary cards. They actually both arrived on Saturday and have been on the fireplace since then.

We didn't fancy getting a babysitter for the evening as Maddy has a bit of a cough, so we went to Savines Le Lac and had a superb lunch at Le Relais Fleuri, which is the large very yellow place just by the bridge. The 18€ menu is excellent value, I had a cesar salad for starters, which was quite large and really good faux filet garni and cheese afterwards. A 75cl pitchet of Rosé is 10€ and a coffee is 2€.

Afterwards we went on Le Courlis which is a boat that does a trip from the bridge down towards the dam, it takes a good 30mins or so to complete the trip and it is great fun. The traffic was a bit bad coming back through Embrun, but we were back in Serre Chevalier for about 8pm. An excellent day.

We took a few photos, but we forgot to charge the camera up, so there aren't loads. It is a really amazing area and well worth visiting.
