Day 6: Geneva

I'm use to rushing out of the door by 7:30 am on a Sunday to get to church and do a sound check with the worship team before the 9 am service. Since the church service where A and S go doesn't start until 11:45, the morning was a lazy morning. Enjoyed a pot of tea on the balcony, did some more packing, checked email, enjoyed the dawning of the new day all before heading out to church.
The church S and A attend is located in one of the old buildings in Old Towne. They share the facilities with another church, hence the late start time. The pastor spoke from 2 Peter 2 about not compromising and being aware of false teachings. They held communion at the end of the service. It's always amazing to worship with other believers in other countries.
After church we walked to an Italian place for lunch. Since I was in the mood for a salad, I got a Greek Salad. Once lunch was finished we headed back to the apartment and spent the rest of the day just relaxing. It felt good not to be on the move, jumping trains, walking tons of stairs, or carrying a backpack.
Monday I head to Montreux to meet up with M. She flew in over the weekend and was staying in Milan for a night. We plan to meet up in Montreux and start my last week in Switzerland and her first week in Europe adventure. We've both have certain places we want to see but the rest is just up to chance. If I had more time and money, I would love to backpack over Europe and see other places like Italy, Germany, Amsterdam, Denmark, England, Ireland, Scotland, Austria, Albania, Romania. I would want to experience these places with my husband. Guess that dream is for another time when we come into a large sum of money and can afford to take the summer off and travel.
