Weekend in Switzerland - the land of milk ,watches,chocolates again!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone!!!!!!!!
This weekend I ventured out on my own from Romilly to Geneva.Took a train to Paris & then another one -TGV to Geneva.I reached a little after 10pm .The train station seemed like an airport-crowd,customs ,police etc.I came out very confidently &when I got out of the main entrance everything seemed alien.Walked to the road & asked the cop because I was told my hotel was located just 300m away from the station.He asked me if I was alone ,when he heard I was indeed alone ,he said he would accompany me to the hotel. I couldn't believe my ears.YES,he did take me in the cop's car  along with another cop & dropped me off at the hotel.He said that after 10pm it was not all that safe  specially because I was alone.I was absolutely surprised & of course delighted  at this gesture of these 2 good Samaritans.Thank you Swiss cops!!!!!!!!!!!!! Goes to prove that there still are many many lovely people. in this world.I have taken a picture with them too.
Day1
In the  morning I  went to the tourist info centre which is close to my hotel to try & book some tour , because I didn't have much time to  research & then book my tours before I left Paris..The ones I had looked online were all booked up,specially I was keen on Gruyeres.I really had taken a chance.As this trip was not planned properly I thought to myself I should have done it next week  so that I could have been better prepared..Anyway since I didn't have anything else except the Geneva city tour , I decided to do that .Then out of the the blue comes  this tour operator who was taking a trip to Gruyeres the place I wanted to go.he said he had a place in his mini bus.So I jumped on the bus & had a wonderful trip to  Gruyeres, Chocolate factory,cheese factory,medieval village -this village is supposed to be one of the beautiful villages on the planet(according to UN)Montreux & of course the Alps.We went up a little over 2000m, on a funiculaire (which is like a train)But unfortunately since  it was cloudy the clarity wasn't very good.Could see lot of snow on the peaks.It was hard to capture on the camera.


In all this excitement didn't remember to charge my camera  Daaaaaaaaaaaa, so couldn't take many pictures but have taken videos instead which I will post soon on FB.
This experience has truly enhanced my cultural understanding  of three different French speaking countries.Thanks to my guide who provided the input.I also found myself using more French on this trip than before. (Asking directions,asking for help,ordering food,buying things from the shop.)
Had dinner at Bombay restaurant on my way back to the hotel.
Bonne Nuit!!!!!!!!!!A demain
