Got our chill-on at Chateau Chillon, which inspired Lord Byron to write "Sonnet to Chillon". His graffiti, amusingly enough, is now a tourist attraction in the dungeon.
The Flickr set from Montreux, Gruyeres, and Lausanne (postings to come) is here.

Monkeying around in Montreux
A few weeks ago, my buddy JP and I took the train from Geneva and walked along the Montreux promenade under the watchful eye of Freddie Mercury where he said, "If you want your soul to find peace, go to Montreux." Went into the famous (now rebuilt) Casino that burned down and inspired Deep Purple's lyrics "Smoke on the Water".
Got our chill-on at Chateau Chillon, which inspired Lord Byron to write "Sonnet to Chillon". His graffiti, amusingly enough, is now a tourist attraction in the dungeon.
