Lac de Creno (Corse)

The "Lac de Creno" is situated nearly in the center of Corsica near Soccia. This lake is one of the most beautiful lakes in Corsica. Upon reaching the lake you feel like you are displaced in a fairy tale. The Laricio pines around the lake and the lilys on the lake makes a very warm, peaceful and pleasant atmosphere. So the exhasuting rise is immediately forgot and the place invites you to stay....


































The donkeys can be rented for riding to the lake and the pigs are looking for something to eat between the numerous tourists.

Ajaccio - Corse

Ajaccio is the Capital of the South of Corse. Of course this town is kown because it is the native town of Napoleon Bonaparte. If you are doing a walk throug Ajaccio you will have all around notes and memoirs to Napoleon Bonaparte. For example the "Maison Bonaparte" (his birthplace) or the statue of him at the "Place du Maréchal-Foch". But this should not be the only reason to visit this beautiful town. There are also many places and streets which invite to stay...

The following picture shows the "Liegenbrücke". The legend says that this bridge will collaps if a liar enters it.

The sea near Krk (Croatia)

Sometimes the sea is so glassy that it seams that the sea and the horizon are getting blurred. Only the boat makes some waves which dissapers in the eternity.

Zillertal (Tyrol, Austria)

The "Zillertal" in Austria with several ski areas is really a very good place for having holidays for wintersports.
For sorrow the weather was not the best during these days, but we had nevertheless a lot of fun by skiing and exploring the valley.
