More pics of Samoens

February 18, 2008

Here is the house we stayed in: (The cost was 1000 Euro a week for 5 bedrooms + 5 bathrooms, w/ a very nice kitchen!)  It certainly beats staying in a hotel - and we saved  a lot on the food. Best of all, I liked the fact that the kids were able to just walk from the house into town and back -  we felt very safe here. The house is about 3 mins away from the town center).

Here is the area immediately surrounding the house. We liked going for walks along the river.

Here is Sixt-fer-a-cheval, which is a 5 min drive up the Giffre river: (this was the launching point for our white water ride into Samoens).

The kids really enjoyed the zip lines in Morillon. Caolan likes to challenge himself; so if you ask him - this is what he'll say he liked the most.
