Avenches/Aventicum II

Kicking back, Roman style.

Avenches/Aventicum

We decided to go to Avenches, Switzerland one day after driving by it many times on the way to Basel. Little did we know what treasures were to be discovered there! It turns out that Avenches was once called Aventicum and was the Roman capital of the province! This amphitheatre could hold up to 16,000 people.

We went into the church which, on the whole, didn't do much for me. I did, however, like the chandelier and the organ. At least as photography subjects.

Contemplation

Annecy Redux

We decided to head back to Annecy in the winter to see what it looked like with a bit of snow and show this lovely town to a guest who was visiting.
