l'Arve

We are currently very busy collecting and assembling furniture and generally unpacking our things from California but now that summer seems to have arrived in Geneva, we would like to introduce the view from our new balcony.

The water is the Arve River which is a lot more turbulent that the lazy Danish waters. It does also receive its water from the glaciers of the Chamonix valley approximately 100 km away but then the Arve does not become much longer. Further 'down the street' it flows into the Rhone.

If the alert skier had enlarged the freeway sign in the previous post, he would already one week ago have known this draw factor for visits to our new corner of the world :-D
