The second option meant that we could meander along the route des grands crus and that was the one we decided on. So let me take you with me on our Geneva to Dijon road trip — what I wore and did. Ah… the moment when you know you can begin to power down. This was the night before our flight, we often stay at The Bulls Head near Manchester airport if we have an early take off. I look ahead and without the family calendar of term times and school events, the months ahead appear empty so I pepper them with things to look forward to but then of course work throws things in our path.
Anyway, you can see by my face that I was looking a bit manic and a few days away from my desk was probably exactly what I needed. Jacket ; trousers ; Boden t-shirt past season; NB trainers.
And so here we are in Geneva the following afternoon. V neck tee gifted SS23 ; Earrings ; Necklaces gifted. The beds, pillows, blackout blinds and ambient noise were as sumptuous as ever at Citizen M so we woke feeling refreshed and decided to skip the delicious looking breakfast so that we could have a walk around the lake instead and then enjoy a long lunch in France later.
At midday we headed back to the airport to collect our hire car which was a bit of a palaver. However, we soon collected our little Fiat , leaving with very strict instructions not, on any account, to drive into Swiss territory and where did we find ourselves?
Going the wrong way on the Swiss motorway! It took a rather hairy twenty minutes to find our way back to the French border so that our road trip could begin at last. Our plan was to meander along the non toll roads, stopping here and there for a coffee or a bite to eat so that we could wriggle our toes and relax into holiday mode.
