L2. Montreux 6 October - part 2

After a great morning in Sion we decided to extend the day by continuing on to Montreux for coffee (as you do!) The train passes through the hilly vineyards of Valais, the city on Martigny and Aigle (which is on our itinerary for later). Difficult to photograph from the train because of overhead wires.
 After a passing glimpse of Chateau Chilon we arrived in Montreux. Walked a small section of the lakeside promenade. Delighted to find that this year's sculpture theme is 'music'. I managed to photograph a lot of them so feel another photo book coming on! 
 

Caught the train up over the pass to Zweisimmen. Great view looking back for a last glimpse of Lac Leman shining in the late afternoon sun.

Difficult to photograph the beautiful Jaun Pass and Simmental as the light deminished but here is one of the nicely decorated station at Saanen. Altogether a wonderful day!
