Well, we don't go out for lunch often so might as well do it right 
Food with a view at Hotel Florence, Bellagio 
Friday 14 September 2012
Messing around at Passo del Gavia. Pratiwi showing how to throw &... erm... 'catch' snowballs. And make a snowman
Thursday 13 September 2012
Dinner at 'Al Filo!' in Bormio. Very nice setting in the 'cave'. Lots of food. Here's Pratiwi & her starter. Yum 
Wednesday 12 September 2012
Cafe at lunch has copies of 'Il Gelatiere': a magazine dedicated to ice cream. Someone approves! Only in Italy?
Monday 10 September 2012
Tarasp: a typical Swiss mountain village... with a castle. Beautiful blue skies and flowers everywhere. Niiiice!
Monday 10 September 2012
A walk around Tarasp, Avrona & Lai Nair (sort of mountain peat bog place - hence the boards). Beautiful day for it
Saturday 8 September 2012
Dinner in Lavin. Wild deer (it's hunting season) & sausage skewers. And desert of course. Yum!
Saturday 8 September 2012
Gratuitous border shot But footpath abruptly stopped on Liechtenstein side so went back & used the wooden bridge.
Friday 7 September 2012
By the shore of Lake Constance. It's huge, with beautiful clear water as you can see. Waiting for the Mainau ferry.
Thursday 6 September 2012
Lake Constance at sunset. Hanging out with the swans... although Pratiwi finds them big & scary any closer than this!
Saturday 1 September 2012
Pratiwi with a few interesting fashion items. Not about the helmet, but the other pieces get a thumbs up.
Saturday 1 September 2012
Finally... a bike sized for Pratiwi?
Wednesday 22 August 2012
Dinner at Hotel Oberland. I have slab of pork wrapped in bacon on rösti, all topped with herb butter stuff. Yum!
Monday 20 August 2012
Another beautiful picnic spot for lunch, this time by Lake Thun.
Wednesday 15 August 2012
These pick-your-own-leave-some-cash flower fields seem to be popular in a few European countries. Brilliant!
Wednesday 8 August 2012
Back down by the lake. Time for some to enjoy coffee & cake!
Sunday 5 August 2012
Pratiwi enjoying the balcony outside our room. Nice traditional guest house here in Reit im Winkl.
Saturday 4 August 2012
Paddling in the river Isar. By the strange little toll road through Karwendel und Karwendelvorgebirge Nature Reserve.
Saturday 4 August 2012
Babi hutan!!!! Right outside our hotel (apartment) here in Farchant (lovely place). Scary if it wasn't so tame!
Friday 3 August 2012
Upon arrival in Farchant... enjoying complimentary cakes, coffee & tea. We even had to decline a second helping!
Wednesday 1 August 2012
Pratiwi looking out from our room. Rather quaint place in Schotten which was very quite & perhaps a bit eccentric?
Tuesday 31 July 2012
Dinner in Schotten. What else but beer & schnitzel? Nice place but so quite. Think we have whole hotel to ourselves!
Monday 30 July 2012
Pratiwi was so happy to find an Indonesian restaurant here in Vaals. Great food! The Dutch colonial connection helps.
Saturday 28 July 2012
Messing about at Mont St-Michel. Hmmm... we like these goodies. Handy since they were dishing a lot out at the TdF
Thursday 26 July 2012
Pratiwi & the sunflowers... take two! 
Monday 23 July 2012
Another Paris café moment. More duck, more Leffe but this time mixed with a burger. Yum!
Monday 23 July 2012
Lunch in Jardin des Tuileries. Best part (as seems to be the case with most places in Paris) was the large desert!
Tuesday 10 July 2012
Wait a second... this isn't France! Passing through Geneva on the way to the Alps.
Saturday 7 July 2012
When in France... in summer... it just had to be done. Messing about in a field of sunflowers of course!
Monday 2 July 2012
Evening picnic by le Plan d'Eau de Mialet (Mialet dam). Took a random road in search of a quiet spot and voilà!
Sunday 1 July 2012
Very nice lunch at Auberge du Parc, Hautefort. Perch wrapped in some crispy pastry stuff and other goodies. Yum!
Saturday 30 June 2012
More duck as dinner for me. Foie gras (as we are so close to Thiviers) & veal for Pratiwi. Plus huge deserts. Yum!
Sunday 10 June 2012
Pratiwi & Vanilla the (short eared) rabbit. Cute... when she's not feeling frisky (the rabbit that is!)
Monday 28 May 2012
Light lunch on the gîte terrace. Bit cloudy on the mountains behind but the sun is shining on us at the moment!
Saturday 19 May 2012
Almost home and still enjoying the trip & views. I think this is by the Serre la Vignasse but don't hold me to that!
Saturday 19 May 2012
Rolling green hills around Lac de Serre-Ponçon & Pratiwi pointing out the location of her dream home
Saturday 19 May 2012
Just hanging in the sun (while it lasts) & having a good time watching the goings on. Now... where are those riders!?
Friday 18 May 2012
Time to go home. Oh go on then... just one more free snack. This time prosciutto wrapped bread sticks. Yuuuum!
Friday 18 May 2012
Barriers a bit high? I say, "We need a pile of bricks" Look around to find half a kerb stone in the bushes. Job done!
Friday 18 May 2012
Walking around some more... on the finishing straight and having a look at one of the merchandise stalls.
Friday 18 May 2012
Literally 2 minutes after walking into the promo area Pratiwi is weighed down with freebies. Time to find a free bag!
Saturday 12 May 2012
Lunch in Malaucène. Entrée and main... don't think desert was on the table long enough for a picture
Saturday 28 April 2012
The girls at dinner in Vaison-la-Romaine. A little celebration as it's been a while
Sunday 15 April 2012
Integrating at the local 'Flower Festival'. Not many flowers, but they had crêpes & other goodies so who cares?
Monday 9 April 2012
Pratiwi is the pink dot on the left here. Not being extra brave - just that's where the path was. Absolutely amazing!
Wednesday 4 April 2012
Rainy day in the Gite.
Monday 19 March 2012
Today's cycling shot: Pratiwi overlooking the river just outside Mialet. She quite liked it here
Saturday 17 March 2012
Hmmmmmmmmm... Cookies Pratiwi is so happy with her home made baking. Yeah, I won't complain either
Thursday 1 March 2012
Almost didn't go to Vaujany, but beautiful run & what a view coming back! Plus snaps from earlier inc. our picnic
Wednesday 29 February 2012
Spot the difference today? Someone's on a rest day and someone else deserves a beer after his energetic morning
