Last shots from Geneva, til our next visit: the number of mountain shots I’ve amassed on this current visit in the US means I need no longer retain any of these lovely alp shots for future entries in that series 🙂
I acknowledge that I might have made time to edit out more of these photos. I did edit some down, but as you can guess, I’m quite charmed by Geneva. With so many photos remaining just from my first visit in mid-September, I’ve decided to splurge all that remain from that first visit on one big old-style Paul post. Enjoy. 🙂
And these last shots of Mont Blanc living up to its name, taken from the roof of our office in Geneva shortly before I hopped the bus to the airport for the flight home. 🙂
Just taking off from Geneva (before the pics in the prior post – sorry if confusing), so these would be the mountains I’m fairly sure are on the other side of the French border.
Our last post was my first view of the alps, looking west-southwest as our plane started to line up along the French-Swiss border for its final dawn approach to land in Geneva. Thanks to an ungodly-early departure from my home on Thursday (after a late return from a delightful bassoon recital with Sam the prior evening), we arrived in viewing proximity to this magnificence at just the right time to enjoy that pre-sunrise glow without having to deal with the glare of el sol shining directly into the phone’s lens. These were taken the following day after a meeting downtown, when I got to see Mt. Blanc rising behind the city – last month when I was there the clouds were too to experience this, though friends told me it happened often. Wow.
