Montreaux Jazz Festival

Yesterday I took a day trip Montreaux, Switzerland to see the Montreaux Jazz Festival. Every year "on the first fortnight of July" musicians young and old, known and unknown descend on the northern banks of Lake Geneva. This year some of the featured artists were Paul Simon, BB King, Sting and James Blunt and is currently a festival for Jazz, Pop and Rock.

Along the waterfront there are rows of stalls with people selling stuff.

There were many live performers that were free, while the big acts were at night and cost around 80 CHF













The mountains fall right into the water, it's really quite unbelievable.
