Just returned from a trip to Gruyeres. Gorgeous, medieval castle and walled town just up the road from Lausanne. Surrounded by snow-covered mountains - Heidi country. So picturesque and with something for everyone; ramparts for kids to gambol upon, breathtaking views of the countryside, a tour of the castle with its furnishings and painted walls. Then to lunch at the Gruyere cheese restaurant where there was fondue and rosti and fried Gruyere ravioli (!) I can't believe how lucky we are. I love learning that a grue in French is a crane - which means that Gruyere cheese is really "Cranium"...
