Where was I? Vol 3

[Fluffsri]

The lake looked very familiar to me but never seen the fork. I Googled it and turns out I've driven past it several times lol.

[feef]

Oh, I know the name of the lake, and the approximate location (NE end of the lake) but I can't remember the name of the town without resorting to Google

[RammyMP]

For fork sake! Are we in the Alps?

there are 103 lakes in Switzerland according to Wiki, i suppose we can start listing them until we get it, or maybe,
as no-one seems to know, tell us and maybe post another?

if we're guessing i'll start,Lake Geneva?

Correct.

It's Vevey. A really lovely town that Charlie Chaplin retired to.

I looked it up last week as I had nafc. Interesting.

[Kenty]

i only put Lake Geneva because it was top of the wiki list!

Someone else can go as i'm away for next 10 days or so.

I googled too. Apparently there's a Fork Lake in the US.

Try this to keep things moving.

Can't believe all of us "well travelled" people had to goggle a giant fork in a Swiss lake.

Sicily?

I know. I'm now going to check where Vevey is just in case I've driven through.

No to either answer btw.

If you ever find yourself driving along Lake Geneva I'd recommend it over any of the other towns. There is also a great service station - Relais Saint-Bernard close by - that even serves horse & frites.

Yup The profile's very distinctive. One of my favourite Welsh hills, even though the scramble before the 'notch' always makes me twitch a bit!


How about this:-



Bonus points for the artist...

We were up there with the kids in 40 mph gusts which was entertaining.

I have no idea about yours. Is it the set of Die Hard??

Can I plump for Gaugin - only on the basis that he wandered around the Far East/South Seas
