Tuk-Tuk Fondue Tour of Geneva

We spent the last few hours of our time in Crans-Montana going through our standard routine: breakfast and coffee, gym, pool. Having enjoyed our time there, we checked out and took the funicular down and train over to our last stop in Switzerland -- Geneva.

Geneva is known for great hotels, and ours was nestled right in the heart of the city. Once we checked in, we had some time to look before dinner. Laura stayed in the hotel to deal with some work, while I went out to walk aimlessly. There are so many monuments and landmarks packed together that I didn't really need to have a plan. After popping into the Cathedral Saint-Pierre, I ended up down by the lake to see the massive fountain, and circled back to walk through the English gardens. Legs stretched, I rejoined Laura to get ready for dinner.

We walked down to the meet up location, and then clambered into our guide's Tuk-Tuk. In the middle of the vehicle was a cleverly crafted table that held a fondue pot, forks, a, bread basket, and a wine bottle / glasses. While neither of us were all that fond of all the attention and looks from the other tourists, we'll both admit that it was a pretty good way to see some of the highlights of Geneva in a short amount of time. The cheese was quite good, too!

And with that, our trip to Switzerland comes to its conclusion. We had a blast travelling around the country and enjoying all the different regions and activities. Switzerland definitely has a place on the would -go-back-someday list. Tomorrow is a long travel day, but we'll be ready to get home to our doggies, our own bed, and the "real world".Read more
