Antsy

Thats how you pronounce Annecy.
Antsy. 
learned that the hard way. haha

So i realized we have been living here for 3 weeks
and i havent even posted any pictures
seems i forgot my camera everytime i want to take a picture
so i decided after class....
{we have 4 hours of class everyday.....
its rough but im learning pretty fast}
But after class we decided we were just going to bike around town
and just take a bunch of pictures.
it was a little overcast
but you can still tell how BEAUTIFUL this city is
i absolutely love it here.
its not scorching hot but not cold by any means
its perfect. 

We bike to school and back everyday.
we bike basically everywhere we go
good way to work off the crepes and ice cream. 
haha. 
{i have gained a few extra lb's here. but when in Annecy right?}

Anyways,
makes me want to bike more when i get back.
you really see whats around you so much better 
and you can feel the fresh air/wind in your hair 
{cliche i know, but true} 

Also, there is section of Annecy called old town
{vielle ville}
its kind of a grid system
{you will see in the first pic}
that has shops,
 a ton of places to eat,
ice cream/gelato places,
and the famous jail.
we go through there almost daily.

Ok i know your getting "antsy" to see this pictures!
So here is my temporary home:

 {on our way home from class.... the bike started to fall, his face is classic}

{famous jail.... lucky inmates} 

{boats all over}

{bridge}

{picture of the bridge that i took the previous picture from}

{pedalboats} 





{the swan strutting its stuff.... 
the water is a beautiful color} 

{sailboats}

{our secret nook we found on a bikeride} 

{just relaxing} 

{there is a few blocks of grass behind me too...
we come here everyday to study or just relax} 

{bike path, love the tunnel of trees}

{mini golf at the "funny parc" as they called it....
this hole was IMPOSSIBLE!!!}


{train over the water} 

{3 holes... and you had to go uphill and go in the right hole
or it came back to you} 

{view facing the blocks of grassy area from the picture above}

{our picnic spot}

{view from the bike path... we bike along the lake}

{we go over this everyday on our way to school}

Hope this gives a pretty good taste of Annecy
i know most of them are of the lake... but i love it.
