Down in memory lane in Geneva, Switzerland
This is a top pick! We left my parents place for about 2 weeks and we went to Switzerland... through their busy schedules and work times, we managed to see 4 sets of friends...some we have known for over 25 years... even before we got married... so we went down memory lane, ...
Yet more old haunts, sorry, friends
This is a top pick! Paul and Toni-Rae have the most amazing apartment looking over Lake Geneva. Spend the weekend with them eating lots and wandering around Geneva, the port and visit some old town up the lake with a castle that I can't recall now. ...
Bent Pegs
This is a top pick! ... left Loz and Seb a little worse for wear after numerous late nights, and didn't get away until midday. Our destination was Switzerland, but realistically we would have to split the drive into two days, one because of the lateness of our departure, and ...
Revisiting old haunts
This is a top pick! ... kindly treating us which I feel very bad about but as Dave keeps reminding us we would do the same for any unemployed lazy gits if it was the other way around). Head over to the Lake on Friday to see Geneva from another perspective and see other ...
Stopover in Geneva
This is a top pick! ... getting straight to Sweden to start my Scandinavia travel, I really should check out Germany as its on the way. That turned out to be a VERY good decision. Anyway, Geneva - Nice Lake and fountain and I ate a great kebab. Nothing much more to say ...
Thank you Sid and Muneera xxx
This is a top pick! ... on earth they build roads through mountains. After some steady climbs and lots of freewheeling 30mph downhill we saw a sign - 40k to Geneva!!! After 1hr and 1/2 we stopped at the bottom of a 5km descent and had a MacDonald's double cheese burger, making ...
A most pleasant train journey
This is a top pick! ... soon. I liked what I had seen and would probably revisit one day and experience more of her hospitality. Our flight to Geneva was uneventful and we managed quite successfully to spend three hours wandering around the city and the lake in the gorgeous ...
Jettin into Geneva
This is a top pick! ... the sun, watching the vineyards and small villages passing by on the each side of the shores. Very relaxing! We eventually floated into Geneva past the 140m high plume of water from the Jet D'eau before heading to our campsite which was 7km back down the ...
Time to take off !
Hi Folks. Voici le jour du départ, Je suis dans l'aérogare, en direct de Genève Cointrin. Il est 10h40 et le soleil brille. Le vol s'annonce ...
Good bye Southamerica
I spent the days before I went back to Switzerland with Shopping, hairdresser, nail studio and drinking. hi hi... It was a strange feeling when I took the taxi to the airport... still sweating like hell but knowing that in a few hours I shall be ...
City of Nations
After a rather uninspiring (stupid winter) train ride along the banks of Lake Geneva, we arrived in the peace capital of the world. The aim was basically to see the UN headquarters, and any free museums that might be of interest. We weren't sure how ...
Legal Disclaimer...
Sorry, in the previous entry I said to JP "when we leave the girls" I meant to say, "when the girls leave us" You never know when the lawyers will get ...
lakeside cosmopolitan
it is nice to move into a new country again (and be speaking French again), tho the transit from madrid was an eventful 21 hour bus ride! a nice atmosphere here mixing the peacefulness of the lake with the busy city bridging over it- a mixture of old ...
Downtown Geneva
Got to take a better look at Geneva today... Took the bus downtown and walked around/window shopped for a few hours. Basically downtown is streets and streets of old buildings that are mostly shops and restaurants- most of the stores are shops like fendi, ...
A Rendezvous in Geneva
... were absolutely delicious-- probably worth between 5-7 Franks. Then we all had some drinks at the apartment before walking to central Geneva to hear some of a music festival that was going on the weekend we were there. The music was pretty awful and it ...
Where's the chocolate??
My host family does not eat chocolate. And they are Swiss. Chocolate and Switzerland are two peas on a pod. BUT I literally have not had even a morsel of chocolate with my homestay family! I have gone to the supermarket and gotten my ...
is it a bus, no a train, no a bus, no a train...
This day is our very first failed attempt to get from one place to another. We tried to go to Annecy France, but found out you really can't get there from here....at least at a convenient time, if you don't have a car, and don't mind a 30 km ...
Geneva
Our train journey from Paris to Geneva was good but not nearly as good as the trip from Amsterdam to Paris. We were really treated like kings(and queens). Food when ever we wanted ...
Lots of Parks Red Cross & Red Crescent Museum city
... we were greeted to the check of 160 francs. Here in Switzerland food is very expensive. I would suggest you prepare yourself for a hefty bill of over a 100 francs for 4 ...
Geneva, Switzerland
... take a walk by the lake. Its so relaxing... I just sat there for a while enjoying myself. It reminded me of how much I love Switzerland. I was to meet Heather at the hotel she booked. She was running late so I went ahead and slept for a while. It felt ...
On the train one more time to Chateaux de Chillon
... the quai and we are there. This is a fantastically restored castle except they are called chateaux in France. I know, we are in Switzerland but it is really, really close to France. Upon closer look we see it is actually built on a big rock: a ...
Good Morning!
It is a beautfifl, sunny day in Switzerland! I am home alone and sitting in bed with some tea....life is good = ) It has been pretty sunny here for the past few days and I am lovin' it! I feel like I've missed winter basically! Since it ...
Geneva and Lausanne
... I was expecting some kind of Shangri La. Instead I got in my opinion, a fairly average French-swiss city on a hill by a lake.. Geneva was pretty similar, but there was more to see and do, and the city seemed more alive, partly due to the fair that ...
Orientation!
... read my blog! I am going to try to keep it as up-to-date as possible! It is now Saturday and I have been in Switzerland for 4 days now. My flight on Tuesday night went just fine and I actually met up with Joey, a guy on my plane who is ...
Geneva
... of the World Global Fund and he seemed he was doing pretty well for himself because he had one of the nicest apartments in Geneva and a bonus I liked was his diplomatic plates on his Mercedes. This of course was the car Hadley drove us around in plus ...
Switzerland
Geneva is a beautiful town but a little to expensive and esoteric for my liking. The next day I bummed around Geneva before taking a night flight to ...
