last but not least.. GENEVA!

ok finally..!!! oh my god.. i never knew it was so tedious to like blog about travels.. god.. *rolls eyes* the endless uploading of photos.. wait wait wait.. sian diaos.. anyway.. last part of my swiss travel - geneva!
ok so then.. hmm.. tues.. slept in.. after like packing up and stuff i went over to esther's sch to pass her her keys and say bye before setting off to geneva.. so then took a train to geneva, went to this city hostel geneva (not bad!) so then after tt checked in, put my stuff then off i went trotting about geneva.



so i was like walking around aimlessly (the hostel provided me with a map with a few like attractions.. so like i kinda tailor made my own journey about geneva.. hehe)
the streets of geneva..
then like whilst i was wandering about.. i kinda chanced upon this church which is supposedly like the tallest building or something.. went in. hehe..

so then was like climbing up the north tower.. (the steps were like damn steep and it was like circular.. so kinda like freaky.. kinda.. and the width was like just enough for one person.. ) so then i climbed all the way up...
this is like the view halfway up.. o.O


so like this is the view from all the way at the top...

so then after having to pain-stakingly slowly climb down, i went to look look see see the church.
ok la the church nothing much to boast about.. got much nicer churches around.. :X
so then continued walking around...
the streets..

this is like the flower clock.. and if u look closely enough u can actually see that they had planted the numbers there too.. just that its scattered around.. apparently they have to replant this every year or something.. really cool
this is like this place that's near the flower clock.. so gonna get married there.. like the vow-giving ceremony or something.. aha dreaming dreaming..
the fountain..
another little resting spot...
then apparently its like the flower clock is like the entrance to this mini park thing.. which then further leds to this boat place...
this is apparently where the fireman resides.. aha.
my favourite car!!!
couldnt help myself when i see this swan doing an obscene pose.. aha.. apparently its feeding la.. then the butt sticks out.. =x
this is like this jetty to the famous jet d'eau which is like some natural water-thingy which sprouts water every hour (until 4pm) every day. i reached too late.. sadly..
anyways that's not the point.. the point is that this jetty is like FILLED with birds of all kinds... seriously, the swiss really loves their birds.. all kinds of birds everywhere mans...

saw this swan sleeping..
a duck doing some obscene stuff.. lol...
like this is like a temple of some sorts.. (dunnoe wad religion la.. ) in the middle of a junction..
one of the many sculpture..

this is like my favourite.. cus of what it represents..

"in memory of elisabeth imperatrice d autriche reine de hongrie 1898 - 10 septembre -1998" (if i didnt see wrongly la..) cool rite.. i die also wan like tt.. :)))

the streets of geneva again..
so then after i went to like the supermarket.. grab some food.. and went back hostel..
that's bout it for that day.. ohh watched shrek 2.. lol.. cus the hsotel was screening it.. lol..
so then the next day.. checked out.. then cus i had a few hours to kill ebfore i had to go to the airport and all.. and cus i stayed in the hsotel, they actually gave me this free transport card for going around in geneva.. so like.. the singaporean-ness in me showed her true colours.. so i randomly boarded a bus and just went sight seeing..
the buskers on the bus..
flea market..



police car!!! lol.. hard not to notice man..
then after i took like a round on the bus.. i dropped off at the central.. then saw like this church.. notre dame church or something like tt.. lol..
went to check it out.
the altar
some weird stuff.
the exterior of the church..
geneva
