GENEVA [2] More Swiss City Scenes

[hkskyline]

Switzerland was the 3rd country I visited that day. However, I wasn't very tired. I walked for about 3 hours along the waterfront area and bumped into my roomate near the train station. Geneva is a small city so I wasn't surprised of this coincidence. The city has an interesting scenery mix. The waterfront shots depict Lake Geneva and the Alps in the background while there are river scenes and interesting architecture along the streets.

10. A new tram roars by. Geneva's tram fleet is a mix of both these new ones and more traditional older rolling stock.

14. I will get soaked by Jet d'eau if I walk further down this path. I liked the swans swimming around in Lake Geneva, but the water was not as clear as what I saw in Vancouver last year.
