Lake Geneva

Nate had to work in Geneva last week and lucky for me & Jake, we were able to join him. His company put us in a fancy hotel right off the lake (a slight upgrade from our last hotel stay in an attic). I had never stayed at a hotel with a doorman before. I had three people waiting on me at breakfast and they even brought Jake a little doggy bowl with water! I thought... I could get used to this. Here are some pictures of the lake: Jet d'Eau Fountain is one of the city's most famous landmarks. It jets out 132 gallons of water per second to an altitude of 459 feet!
The mountains are peeking out from beneath the clouds. There are actually some clouds below the mountains too.
The view as Jake and I were jogging. Notice the old lighthouse in the distance.
Jake wanted to run after the birds...
And swim after the swans...
He started to bark excitedly at the swans and they hissed back at him. I was actually scared of a swan for a moment!
A beautiful sunset on the lake.
I love all the sailboats.
The view of the lake, city, and sunset.
