Montreaux and beautiful Lake Geneva

While I was in Montreaux, Switzerland and waiting for some tea to brew…a storm was brewing over Lake Geneva. In a matter of minutes the clouds came over the mountains and engulfed the sun and turned a sunny and peaceful sky into a threatening scene.I was very impressed by the power of nature on display over this lake.

Lake Geneva is full of surprises.

Compare the two pictures below. Both pictures show Lake Geneva on two different days. The first picture was taken from Montreaux, Switzerland, while the second was taken from Thonon les Bains, France. Both cities are pretty much accross the lake from each other.
