November 5 - November 11, 2000 - Yet more shots of beautiful Switzerland. Below: the the Appensel region, which still looks very traditionally "Swiss." Also, shots of the Alps from Flims.
It's getting cold! Snow-capped mountains and an icy river	Traditional street, house (Isn't this getting boring? It really is ALL gorgeous.)	Flims, Switz. The Alps in late afternoon	David and his Dad, Denis, during a late autumn walk.
November 22 and 23, 2000 We drive from Zurich to Lausanne, Switzerland and Montreaux, Switzerland, (ultimately on our way to the south of France.)
Hotel Du Lac in Lausanne, Switzerland (Where we happily stayed.)	One of the COOLEST things we have seen: Chateau du Chillon, a 12th century castle near Lausanne. Lord Byron wrote about it, and actually carved his name on a pillar inside.	The aforementioned columns, where Bonivard was chained for 4 years and Lord Byron gained inspiration.	The view from the highest point of Chillon.
November 24 through December 1, 2000 We continue on to Nice. Not many pictures the first few days. Rain, rain, rain! We loved our hotel, though, so we spent some time there studying, working, talking. Oh, and we both had LOTS of French practice.
Hotel Durante ... we recommend it!	We had a main room and a kitchenette.	It looks like Market Street in San Francisco! Along the sea in Nice, France.	A typical street in the medieval town of Biot.
November 25, 2000 Heather's Birthday. We drive to an old town called "Mougin." We take no pictures. Oh well!
November 29, 2000 A day trip into Monaco. We saw the changing of the guard at the palace. Didn't see any royalty, but we saw a lot of expensive housing!
David says the big one is his.	Cool statue in the park. Title, "Invitation."	Cap Ferrat, on the way to Monaco. It was warm and gorgeous!	Heather in Cap Ferrat.
December 1, 2000 We leave the south of France (much to Heather's dismay!) We drive up to Beaune, France in the Burgundy wine region. Heather is bored in the car.
David's tongue.	David likes to drive.	VERY, VERY bored.
December 2-3, 2000 Beaune, France ... and old French stuff near Dijon. Of course we tasted wines in Beaune. The days were cloudy and not picture-worthy really. The landscape, though, was covered with vineyard after vineyard as far as the eye could see.
Farmer's Market in Beaune.	Must see: Old hospital courtyard in Beaune: Hotel Dieu.	"Beze" is fabled to be one of the most beautiful villages in France.	An old castle in the French countryside.
