GENEVA, Switzerland - 9 July 2011


SATURDAY 9 JULY – GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – DISNEYLAND, PARIS, FRANCE
First thing this morning was to find breakfast somewhere.  We were thrilled to be in Switzerland, in particular Geneva which is such a stunning city.  We headed towards the lake and found a restaurant with croissants and hot chocolates for breakfast.  We then wandered down to Lake Geneva and fed the swans and ducks as we admired the beautiful scenery before us.  Across the lake were fabulous hotels that lined the lake and behind them in the distance was a beautiful range of mountains that would look incredible in winter with the snow on them.  We sat by the lake for a while, the warm sun was lovely.  It has been 12 years and 3 months since Corky and I were here last on our honeymoon – I am still wearing the Tag Heuer watch we bought here.




We were keen to get to Disneyland however we hit the world’s longest traffic jam it seemed.  We sat in it for at least an hour, all because of road works.

We finally arrived into Disneyland.  Each kilometre we got closer, the squeals in the car got louder, we were all on the look out for the first sighting of the Disney castle.  We went straight to our Hotel; The Explorer Hotel, checked in and went to dinner.  After dinner the kids wanted to go swimming in the indoor pool with slides so we got changed and had a late swim.

Till next instalment .... x
