So i rode into Switzerland from France and passed through Geneva on a Sunday evening. Connected with a lovely bike path that followed lake Geneva or Lac Lemon as it is known by the Swiss and found a pleasant campsite on the lake about 30km from Geneva and spent the next three nights there. i found it to be a very accommodating place to spend a few days. it seems that most of the campsites around Europe are occupied by retired Dutch, German and Swiss folks. Seems like a good life to me! the second night i was at this campsite it started to rain very hard and my cheap tent failed the rain test. i woke up one morning with a tent full of wet clothes and spent the next couple of days doing laundry, organizing my gear and simply relaxing by the lake. this was my first big rainstorm of the trip and it has still not let up. the past week has been wet and cold here in Switzerland, not ideal weather for bike riding. although i have met some lovely Couch Surfing friends while here and went to a fun BBQ party last night and had a very good time meeting the local CS communtiy in Bern, however when i left to ride back to my campsite i got completely lost at one point trying to navigate the wet mysterious roads of Bern at 1am. i finally got my bearings and followed the river home, it was probably after 2am at this point and i went straight to bed in a blissful slumber of deep appreciation.
'how was that for a concise description of an entire week?'
