Geneva Switzerland Trip

Geneva Switzerland Trip

At the beginning of May, I went to Geneva, Switzerland, with Easyjet from Gatwick Airport and I stayed there with my Aunt, Uncle and cousins.

One the first day we went to an IKEA for lunch.  I had meat balls and chips with peas.  We also went to a shopping mall which has a dentist practice upstairs where one of my cousins works as is a dentist.  She showed us around.

On my second day we went to the Geneva Botanical Garden which is free, it was beautiful to see all the flowers, trees, plants, herbs, spices, fruits, vegetables from all over world. There were animals, birds and fish there too!

On the third day I went in to Geneva city. I looked at the old and new buildings; we drove past the United Nations Headquarters building.  We went to the Swatch shop which had all their watches on display!  We went to a Department store called Globus where we looked at the home ware things. We also went to the Nespresso shop which sells coffee machines and coffee too, we also had a taster! I tried a coffee which was a vanilla flavoured coffee.  I saw the lake which is called Lac LĂ©man, its waterfront is very pretty! I went to the old town. It was very nice and instructive to see all the old buildings with beautiful balconies with flowers.

On the fourth day my family and I drove past near the French border the CERN Sphere which houses the CERN Hadron collider (Higgs Boson). It is really cool to see the building.

On my birthday I looked at my twitter and I found out that I won Amelia Liana YouTube give away. I was so excited. My family and I went to Montreux to visit the town and we stopped at the Grand Hotel for coffee, I had a cafe latte.  It was very luxurious.  We also walked to the Freddy Mercury memorial, he was the lead singer of Queen!

On the sixth day we went to a Chinese restaurant for lunch.  I got ginger pork with rice and vegetables, and after lunch we went to the Railway station/shopping centre where we were given a free little bottle of water which they were promoting there!
