Europe June '08 Part 3/12 - Geneva

Sorry for the long hiatus. It's hard enough to fit in time to meet up for some tea, let alone upload pictures to the blog.

Here's a picture of some significant part of Geneva's history. Pity I couldn't remember which one though :P

A giant clock made out of flowers!

Memory fails me again, oh dear

Lake Geneva (Euro 2008 fever still on, hence the giant football on the right)


The Jet d'Eau. Didn't get to see it at night due to summer's massively long daylight hours

The Swiss Alps, ever prominent in every part of Geneva

Some of the houses overlooking Lake Geneva

Geneva is a really nice place (except for how French is the main language there). I'm sure it'll look even more gorgeous in winter, when the mountain peaks are covered with snow. Who knows, maybe I'll go there again sometime in the near future, but this time not following a tour group. It's somewhat potong stim as a photographer because you'd have to abide by all their (usually unforgiving) time schedules.

But in any case, next set will be of Montreux, on another side of Lake Geneva.
