Day 9 - Boat ride on Lake Geneva

 We took a boat ride on Lake Geneva on this steam boat.  It is huge and just beautiful
 This is the elegant dining room we had lunch in and below is the menu I chose for the day.
 I started with a tuna mousse.
 The next course was this wonderful broccoli mousse in a pastry with a Roquefort mousse on top. When you cut into this you get the taste of the Roquefort cheese, a very slight taste of broccoli and the texture of the pastry crust.  Heavenly.
 Next was the shrimp in a broth with matchstick veggies and raviolis.
 And for dessert....I don't even know how to describe this.  The top part was chocolaty and soft and the middle had a hazelnut taste to it and the bottom was crunchy.  A perfect end to an amazing meal.
 We sat outside on the boat and had coffee.  Here and some of the hillsides covered with vineyards.


Dinner that night was a wonderful roasted chicken, potatoes and green beans.
