After such a nice time in Bern, I decided to go spend a day in Geneve, Switzerland on the France border. I had a lovely trian ride to Geneve and then put all my stuff in a locker at the train station. Because it was Sunday, no stores were open, not even the Tourist Information booth. I meandered through the town and found the hostel where I would be sleeping. It was different than the two previous places...a little dirtier and a little different crowd. I decided to check out the lake and I happened to catch a boat that traverses the lake. 
There was a cool fountain in the middle of the lake..better in person than the picture. 
I got off at one of the stops and got on a bus to down town. I found a really old church and quite a few closed clothing stores! I got on another bus..not knowing where it would take me (hopefully someplace to get dinner, but it did not). I ended up at the border to France...so I got on the bus going the other way and headed back down town.
I made it back to the lake and realized I had a long walk back to where the boat would take me to the other side of the lake...and it was getting dark. I made it back to the hostel and to the trainstation to get my bags. It was not until I was almost back to the hostel that I saw the tram that went directly to the train station from a few block away from the hostel. I am getting better at lugging all this stuff around, but I am looking forward to dropping everything in Poland! I ate dinner at a nice little Italian restaurant. I had Gnochi (not as good as what I had at Aunt Debbie's) a tomato sauce. This was actually my first meal in a restaurant. 
The next morning, after sleeping in until the last minute, I lugged my stuff back to the train station and headed to Interlaken.
