Today Monica left us to return to Barcelona.
Anamaria and I headed out of Vichy with plans to get as far as Geneva today. On the way out I had the only accident of the whole trip. We were stopped in traffic and all of a sudden I heard a screech of brakes behind me and someone crashed into the back of my bike. Fortunately it wasn´t serious and we were able to carry on.
The trip to Geneva was easy. We drove along the freeway and passing through a tunnel were all of a sudden in the Alps. When we got to Geneva, Anamaria contacted her friend Adriana and we drove to the train station to meet her. The traffic though was incredibly bad and it took a long time to get there. At the train station we separated and I headed up along the east side of Lake Leman to find a campground. Coming out of Geneva was also difficult. It took over two hours to drive through the city and get to the campground. Now, I need to get to Frankfurt in two more days. So, I didn´t even see anything of Geneva. It´s just set up camp, sleep over and pack up in the morning.

One of the great experiences of the day was that we stopped at a little restaurant on the side of the highway for lunch. It was a truckstop and full of truckers having lunch. It turned out to the one of the best lunches we had. It was three courses including a plate of cheese and dessert. The waitress even gave the kids a little present when we left.
