Sunday, 12th January, 2014 - Geneva, Switzerland

Our Heidi-fied room is surprisingly quiet, so for once we slept well. This may have had something to do with the fact we don't seem to be able to get the air.con/heating to work, so we weren't sleeping !in the usual over heated environment.
We had thought about catching the train to Montreux and walking around the lake to my old school, Le Mesnil, but the day was dreary and the rail fares exorbitant. Instead we opted for buying a couple of English Sunday papers and spent the morning reading.
Geneva on Sunday is not the liveliest of cities, but there are a few places open. Geoff found an Irish pub where he could get a pre-lunch Guiness

Apart from over the top Swissness, the hotel restaurant offers inspirational messages: Rejouissez-vous toujours dans le Seigneur!

then we found that the restaurant we had enjoyed yesterday was also open so we had a quite pleasant lunch while watching international snowboarding races on the big screen.
Once again packing will occupy the afternoon as we have another early start in the morning with the airport shuttle arranged for 7.15.
