I am looking for a destination that I once saw on the cover of a travel magazine. It was a small European town situated on a rock in the middle of lake surrounded by mountains. The town had medieval style walls and it was connected to the land by a single bridge. It looked a bit like Mont St. Michel, but it was much smaller. If anyone has any ideas as to the name of this location, please help me out.

I have a few questions: 1) Are you sure it's in Europe? 2) What did the mountains look like (snowcapped, bare, vegitation)? 3) How big was the lake? 4) Are you sure it was a town and not a castle? 5) Did you see fog? Sunshine? -------------------- Living Well Is The Best Revenge Going Down South to North Carolina Book Reviews: http://www.ManOfLaBook.com
