Gruyere, CH

This wasn’t in our itinerary. But because I’m in love with old towns and castles, as soon as I spotted it, we decided to stay at a campground by the Lake Gruyere. 

cheese and overflowing lakes

What do you remember the most? 

My budding love affair with Gruyere cheese…

And how our lovely lakefront stay was cut short when Gruyere overflowed after a night of mild rain!! That was the slowest, funniest flooding I’ve ever experienced. Thankfully, Pascal had a friend with a hut in the mountains nearby…
