On the Waterfront of Lake Geneva

Geneva > Switzerland

The train from Lyon to Geneva trudged up through the lush green mountains alongside misty rivers and towns tucked away in the hills. Arriving in Geneva we trekked across the street to our hotel to check in. The room was small, expensive and luxurious. The layout was tight and efficient.

Afterwards we walked down to the lake and cruised around along the waterfront. The air was fresh and clean. The water was fresh and clean. We got a few good pictures despite the drizzly overcast sky.

Down from the harbor is a beautiful park headed by a blue sundial perhaps alluding to the renowned Swiss precision and punctuality. The park was populated by a variety of lush green trees and shrubs, incuding this beautiful crooked tree below.

After our brief stint in Geneva we took a train down to Marseilles for the next leg of our trip — the Cote d’Azur.
