While at breakfast at the hotel I had the opportunity to take a couple of photos showing the fact that the area is in transition.

Our hotel is located across the street from the bus stop for bus # 61 which is a direct bus to downtown Geneva. The hotel had the bus tickets available at the desk.

We walked from the bus terminus to the old city area of Geneva. There were 2 areas showing the archeological history. One area was located in a parking garage and the other was under St. Paul's Cathedral. The latter was very impressive and illustrated historical evidence dating back to before Christ. The various stages of the Cathedral were shown using models and media displays.

Upstairs we visited the Cathedral.

We continued walking through various areas in the old city before heading back to the harbour for a quick lunch before taking the harbour tour which lasts about an hour.

Returned to the hotel via the # 61 bus.

Interesting to note that Geneva is a very wealthy city but it took us close to 30 minutes to locate a bank cash machine.
