Picture This #263 ~ Boats

Do we have boats in Switzerland? We do not even have a coast line, but yes we have lakes and rivers and now and again I make a trip to London, so let us see what I have that has never before been seen.

Just along the River Aar by Altreu - no problem in Altreu the have a restaurant, about 200 storks (a colony) and a river. Here is the local ferry from one side to the other.

Found another one, moored on the River Aar just down the path to where I live.

If you want to see a boat in Paris, just take a walk along the River Seine. They are all waiting for the tourists.

  1. Very nice boats, Pat. The one in the middle is striking, so peaceful, the water like glass. Nice ferry on the Aar and lovely shot of Paris and the Seine with the tourist boats. I really should go back.

  3. Hi Pat !! Great shots for Heidi's theme!! Lovely little ferry in the first shot. Room to take your cycle, and a roof in case it rains. What more could you ask? A very peaceful scene in the second shot. Considering France is the nearest 'foreign' country to the UK, I have seen very little of it in person. I have yet to visit Paris.

  6. Nice shots, Pat! I love the little ferry...so cute!

    The blue cover on the second boat really stand out...eye catching blue!

    Interesting shot of the tour boats. I wish we had done that in Paris. We did a boat tour in London but it never stopped raining!!!
