Café Culture Continues

Even though we are nearly into November, the lakeside in Nyon was very busy on Sunday with visitors and townsfolk. They were either catching some winter sun in the outdoor cafés, or pottering around in the monthly flea market down by the Rive. Others were taking advantage of the lovely weather by taking a ferry trip across the lake before the schedule changes to its winter timetable. There was even a queue at the icecream shop!

Just because the tourist season is coming to an end, doesn't mean that activities stop here in this town. There's lots on the agenda in the coming months, and this site will be featuring some of them. Meanwhile if you have never been to the chateau in the centre of Nyon, now might be a good time to go as at the moment, entrance to it is free. From January 2009 there will be an entrance charge. However this charge will cover entrance to the chateau, the Roman Museum and the Léman Museum and will be valid for a year.

Finally, good news for all of you who like to skate when its cold outside as there will be a temporary skating rink erected behind the railway station this winter. More on this in the next few weeks.
