Now Playing Tracks

bonnevie81: Today my friend and I decided to take a break from touring Geneva (!) because it’s “quite dead” here on Sundays, so we planned to go out to an adorable French village to get some mountains in our lives. The trains don’t run on Sundays here (especially not Easter Sunday) so we worried our dream to visit Annecy would fall through. Luckily, we met some of her friends for brunch and one of them brought a friend who works at Cern—you know, the huge nuclear collider research center (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CERN)—and he had a car and nothing to do today! So we headed across the border together. Annecy is called “the Venice of France” because its a town built on canals. It’s surrounded by a lake at the foot of the French Alps. Ummmmm B-E-A-UTIFUL. We stopped for dinner at a small Crêperie. I got a crepe filled with cheese, ham and spinach, with a single fried egg in the middle, covered in mushrooms and cream. I could have eaten it forever. Now I’m back in Geneva, for one more day. Heading to the UN tomorrow then Swiss fondue for dinner!! When my friend, Emily, visited Geneva!
