Cathédrale St. Pierre in Geneva

Post 9/9 of Spring Break Travels: April 15th, 2009

Our final sight-seeing stop in downtown Geneva was St. Peter's Cathedral. We paused for a drink in a crêperie/café that looks up to the spire, then went in and climbed the towers for a perfect view over the city, the lake, and the Salève mountain we'd climbed the previous afternoon. I am so thankful for this first visit to Geneva since we moved to Zurich 9 months ago. My brother has been up to see us at least three times already, so it was time to sneak a trip in myself. We enjoyed dinner with him and my niece as well while we were there. Here ends my spring break travel blogging. Time to get ready for guests coming over for dinner!
