Last summer, more than 20 students met in Annecy (P\u00e2quier area) <\/span>for a big Savoyard picnic. They ate local cheeses, cold meats, baguettes, vegetables and apricots. The students drank Savoy wines and fruit juices.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Then they split into two level groups to take a tour of the city. A group was guided by Jean-Fran\u00e7ois for an advanced level visit related to local history and literature. At the same time, the other group left with Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric for a beginner-intermediate visit more oriented towards practical life, sports and special p<\/span>laces in the city.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In Annecy, events take place all year round, impossible to get bored! So, to learn more about what to do here, on the lake and around, go check out <\/span>the very beautiful website of the tourism<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>office:\u00a0<\/span>https:\/\/en.lac-annecy.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Annecy Paysages Festival <\/span>takes place every summer. In 2019, the city hosted <\/span>32 artistic and landscape installations in the emblematic places of the city.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The afternoon ended with a cruise. At that time, the two groups joined. Savoie cruise ship’s first mate w<\/span>elcomed the students and commented on the cruise speaking rather slowly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CILFA offers many educational activities throughout the year. They are cultural, linguistic, sometimes sporting and usually take place outside of school. They vary according to the seasons:\u00a0https:\/\/www.cilfa.fr\/en\/outside-activities\/<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A poem<\/h4>\n

Finally, a poem by Oscar David about Annecy (in French!):<\/p>\n

Annecy\u00a0! Ville claire au bord des eaux limpides,<\/em><\/p>\n

Tu mires tes balcons et tes voiles rapides<\/em><\/p>\n

Dans ton lac modulant son \u00e9ternel po\u00e8me.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>Le soir tu t\u2019alanguis en de lascives poses<\/em><\/p>\n

Et le parfum troublant de tes ardentes roses<\/em><\/p>\n

Monte du lac aux cieux en offrande supr\u00eame.<\/em><\/p>\n
