The 2013 edition of the Naval Parade CGN displayed the most prestigious fleet of boats “Belle Epoque” of the world performing in front of Nyon lake shores.
There were several parallel exhibitions, always related with the historical paddle-wheeled boats; at the end of the show, over 2000 multi-coloured balloons were released by the passenger of the boats.
There was also a Lockheed Constellation ("Connie"), a propeller-driven aircraft, which flew over our heads!
I was lucky enough to see all directly from my window and the photos of this gallery are a little documentary series of the event.
