Tuesday 28 June
Interesting day at the EBU Networks Seminar today. Had a wander through a park to the lake this evening. Geneva was quite busy with lots of people out walking and swimming. The fountain is quite impressive. I recall it being in the opening scenes of a TV drama series called "The Champions" when I was a lot younger. I walked onto a jetty on the opposite side to the fountain jetty for a closer look.
