One more time I organize the first gathering of the new year, and this time we'd really love to see you people :-)

Best for you is to come by plane to Geneva (cheap tickets), then it's a one hour drive (Highway all the way) or train directly to the meeting place of the event! !

Program


Friday 14th

Meeting from 9a.m. in Villeneuve, at the Movie Cars Central showroom for breakfast, and a morning of chatting with old and new friends !

During the Morning, those willing to have a thrill will be able to have a ride in some of the Star Cars available.

At noon, “melt hot cheese with ham and sausages” for everyone!

The afternoon, we go on a sweet sightseeing drive near, with a magnificent view on the Swiss Alps.

The evening we’ll enjoy a traditional “fondue” in the city of Les Diablerets before going on a 15 minutes wooden luge ride in the dark with head-mounted lights! A hot wine will be served at the finish line.




Saturday 15th

The morning : Lakeside drive, passing through Montreux City, then visit of the Chillon Castle, Switzerland's most visited monument, a real architectural marvel from the middle-ages, built on the waters of the Leman lake.

Pic-Nic on the outskirts of the Castle.

The afternoon will be dedicated to the visit of the Salt Mines of Bex, fantasy-like colourful caves that will make you feel like a hero of “journey to the center of earth” with its underground mini-train.

After that we head for the Lavey hot baths!

We’ll have dinner at the "3 Sifflets", where they don't joke about Swiss folklore and tradition !




Sunday 16th

Meet at 8 o’clock at the garage in Vevey for breakfast.

Work in progress

You can have lunch in a restaurant or sandwich place of your choice at noon.
