yesterday, some of us didn't go with the rest of the crowd for the conference excursion on lake geneva. instead, three brave souls climbed le salève... well, we took the bus to veyrier at the very south end of geneva, crossed the french border, and got a ride by a cable-car to le salève. the weather, and hence the view, was beautiful at first. by the time the clouds and rain caught up on us, we headed for the pubs of geneva. again.

mont blanc is just out of sight, behind the trees at the right end in the above shot.
