Nov 17 - Annecy, France

Awoke to find Geneva under four inches of snow. I packed up and left at 10 am. It was tedius and slow moving.The bike froze over, I froze. I got to Annecy cold, wet, and tired. The address I had, no one was home, but I was invited to a nearby house. Had some beer, bread, cheese and rice. Went to bed in a room that was as cold as the outside snow.

Mileage: Geneva to Annecy 43 km

Nov 16 - Geneva Switzerland

After breakfast I packed up and left at 9 am in a very cold wind. However it was behind me and I arrived in Geneva at 11 am. Went to the American Express, got my mail and sat down and read for an hour. Went to the Kuffers, had lunch and called home at 2 pm. It was 7 am in the morning in Oklahoma. But for $10 I heard everyone. Alain took me out in the car and we saw Geneva, The fountain, the University, the old town, John Calvin’s Cathedral, the World Health Organization building, International Red Cross, the European Atomic Research Complex, and the new Geneva Airport. After dinner, retired.

Mileage: Morges to Geneva 59 km.
