Easter in Geneva

I have been thinking about writing a word or two about Easter, but haven't really been motivated yet and don't you know, before I did it, my lovely boyfriend wrote an entry about it and also included a small competition about the best painted egg (so go there and vote!).

In short, we had planned to go to Cinque Terre in Italy for a nice 4 days off at the coast enjoying hiking between the villages, meals on terraces, breaks on the beaches etc. However, the forecast said that it would rain for the 4 days and suddenly the idea of having to hide out in hotel rooms and/or hike under the rain just didn't seem that tempting. So we decided to save the money, stay at home for once and go to Italy for another long weekend. This was of course done for reasons of environmental concerns only.... ;)

Anyway, a forecast of somewhat ok weather for Geneva (but spending days in the apartment if it rains is nicer than in a hotel) turned out to mean sun sun sun sun :)

So, we ate, and walked, and went to the baths of lavey, and painted eggs, and met with friends, and suntanned (first bikini use of the year - for 3 of the days!), and ate some more.

All in all a good Easter break in Geneva. What did you do?
