GENEVA - PART II

The second day in Geneva we were up early and headed out on time to keep our scheduled appointment at both the WTO and WIPO. After the presentation ended at the WTO, which was our first port of call, we lounged around its magnificent courtyard firing up on coffee, brownies and whatever we could lay our hands on. The next stop was the Je Raffole de la Botanique where we passed time until the next presentation soaking up the sweet Geneva sun after months of enduring the unpredictable and dreary English weather.

All I can say is that we could all take lessons from the Switz on how to enjoy life. Hah!

Enjoy!

Receiving the presentation.

Our speaker.

Dr .A. Paolini, our Group Head and Professor of Law at the University of Buckingham,

A veritable fountain of knowledge on the WTO.

The group. (Excuse the picture quality. As you can see, I was not responsible. :D)

Enjoying the lovely courtyard.

Our eye candy on the trip.

I gave up trying to figure out how this indoor fountain worked.

Done with the WTO.

My people. :)

Arriving at the Je Raffole de la Botanique.

I've always been a nature enthusiast.

Beautiful.

So serene. :)

We were not alone in our quest to soak up the sun.

The colors were amazingly vivid and I tried to pick one because it matched my dress. An  little bee flew out of the petals buzzing angrily at me and sent me quickly on my way  :(

Relaxing.

The lovely Banke and Tishan.

Tishan doing cartwheels at the beauty of it all. *Lols*

C'est moi.

The glamorous Banke. <3

Trying to do the 'pose pose' thing that bloggers do... err, I might need to work on that a bit.  What can I say, c'est not me? :D

Pausing in the hurry of life to smell the flowers...or is it roses? All join sha.

*Lol* Not all of us can be romantics, ainnit?

My two favorite 'girls'.

Another spot what's wrong with the picture moment. Is that a man blowing  a trumpet, smoking a pipe or rubbing his belly?

I said it before and I'll say it again, swag for dayzzzz!!!

Pausing to enjoy one of the other fine things in life... :D

I wasn't left out. :)

Miss B taking in the scenery.

The chicks couldn't have been more than a couple of days old. Cute!

My photography skills are improving to my delight! Can you spot both fishes in the background?

Last picture before we headed out of the garden to WIPO for our next presentation.

More pictures to come your way tomorrow. Right now food, bed and Criminal Minds beckon.

Au revoir & lush chocolate kisses,
