Je suis allée en Genève
So, 2 trains, un bus and some stress later, Jen, Kara and I arrived in Geneva, Switzerland. Go figure, stupid American tourist girls got on the wrong train out of Grenoble. Good thing. Everything ended up just fine, as you can see from my pictures - yes I finally updated them.
We made it to Genève and walked around for a while. I bought a Swiss Army Knife for myself, and one for Kingsley that I promised her in January. Of course, we all bought some delicious Swiss chocolate. We hung out by the lake, saw some swans in the river, and checked out the banking district. There are banks from every country, in every language in the world. There are so many banks it's ridiculous!
By the end of the day, we were all so wiped out. We got on the correct train back to Grenoble and relaxed a bit on the ride. I also bought Angels & Demons while in Genève, and started reading it on the train back to Grenoble. For anyone who doesn't know, the novel is set in Geneva and, just like it's brother the Da Vinci Code, is very intense! Since I'm reading it in Europe; it's making me want to go to all the places it talks about.
Mom, just FYI, this time I didn't sleep through the scenery of the Swiss Alps that you claim I missed the last time around. You are right, it is insanely beautiful. However, while Geneva is awesome, Lucerne, Switzerland is still the most beautiful place I've ever been in my life, sauf, maybe Higgins Lake.
Tomorrow we're going as a groupe to some caves in some mountain in Grenoble. If I knew more details about it, I'd fill you in now, but all I know is that I have to get up at 7.30h and be at the musée by 8.00h. C'est dommage. That's all I have to report for now... A bientot!

Man that's a lot to read when you are out of town for a couple days. Glad you are having a good time over there. I'm jealous of all the travelling you are getting to do and I must say the Barbie sheets are hot. Peace.
