A weekend in Gex

Posted on 17 May, 2012 by Emmanuel

We used to live in Ferney-Voltaire, just over the border between Switzerland and France, behind Geneva airport. I made the most of being in Geneva to visit some friends who live in Gex, not far from there. It was good to catch up. On Sunday we attended the Lausanne Reformed Baptist Church where I saw a few familiar faces. We were invited out for lunch and had a lovely time in the Swiss countryside.

I travelled back home on Monday and arrived in the evening to find that Jean-Baptist has his left arm plastered after a bad fall.

I am going away to Geneva on Wednesday for a conference. Tomorrow is a bank holiday and there’s much to do before I leave so there’s no time to waste. I have to print train tickets, itineraries to change station in Paris, find a swiss plug adapter…
