Gruyeres!
My last outing with Michelle and Adam was a day trip to Gruyeres, Switzerland. It is famous for producing Gruyere cheese, along with some fabulous chocolate! It is a short 1 hour 15 minute train ride from Lausanne, and displays some beautiful countryside scenery along th
e way. Once we arrived, we headed up the hill to the center of town. It is a very small medieval town with hotels, restaurants, and shops lining the main street. We took a great tour of Chateau du Gruyeres, a medieval castle overlooking the town. Then we headed back down the hill to buy some cheese and chocolate! The shop also has a cheese demonstration which is available to watch, although we did not make it to that. I do have to say that it was some of the freshest cheese I have ever tasted! I'm looking forward to going back so that we can check out the chocolate factory!
