Weekend Fun! :)

            I have been very fortunate that in addition to enjoying working in Geneva, I have been having a wonderful time exploring the city and the surrounding areas! J

            One of my new favorite activities is having picnics! Rather than going out to eat dinner, my friends and I have been buying food at the grocery store and then eating outside in various parks and around the lake! It is such a nice way to relax after work and is always so fun!

            I had a great time this weekend! On Saturday, I visited Annecy, France with Brooke, a girl living in my hostel and one of her intern friends, John. I was shocked by how easy it was to take a day trip to France and really enjoyed exploring the picturesque city! It is absolutely gorgeous and we ended up with beautiful weather! We all had a great time! Here are some pictures from the day:

We learned how to make Origami Boats!

           Today (Sunday) I went to mass at John XXIII Parish. I attended the English speaking Mass with a friend who has been living in Geneva a few months last week and then I found the Mass again all by myself today! It is a very small church but has a wonderful community atmosphere and I am so glad that I found a mass where everyone speaks English!

            Finally, today I decided to climb to the top of the Cathedral that I am living across from! I have been meaning to climb to the top since I moved in and found myself with a free afternoon to do so! I was a little bummed that it is so cloudy and rainy today so my pictures did not come out great but the views were still amazing!! J I still cannot believe how lucky I am to be living in the Old City!
