Still in Geneva
Well, it could be raining.
Our bikes are supposed to be on tonight’s Thursday flight from Montréal, hopefully getting here Friday at 9:50am local time. This is a two day delay! Arrrg!
Cory will be checking the gps tracker that is in his bike box.
On Wednesday we had trouble finding a hotel under 400CAD. The best airport hotel was 325 Swiss francs EACH, so about $1000CAD! We got a large room just inside the France border for 300CAD.
On Thursday we moved to a cheap hotel, this time only 115CAD with breakfast.
Thursday was another beautiful day here in Geneva, even a bit hot.
We walked about downtown near the lake, and had a couple stops for beer, pizza, and more beer.
We have a day pass for the transit so we took a tram to see the United Nations buildings. They looked nice but they don’t let common folk on the grounds. Same with the WTO.
Walking back we noticed that the small ferry boats crossing the lake were part of the transit system and included in our pass. We went across the lake, and back on a different one. It was a nice little trip. The actual tourist boat ride is 130CH, or about 200CAD, for an hour!
