Every Sunday we head to Geneva for church. Last Sunday, the rain finally let up and so we decided to explore a little bit. We drove over to Lake Geneva to see the Jet d'Eau, which is the tallest fountain in Europe and has become the emblem of Geneva.
The fountain is on the south bank of Lake Geneva. The water shoots up 460 ft high at 125 miles per hour. It is pretty amazing and on a clear day you can actually see it from our house. The soccer ball next to it was set up for the soccer EuroCup 2008, which is taking place right now in Austria and Switzerland.

Although he doesn't make it into a lot of our group pictures, Henry does in fact exist
Switzerland has so many flower boxes/pots in all of the villages and cities
If only their relationship was this good all the time
A couple pictures of the lake
Along our walk we passed this fountain that had been drained for repairs. The kids thought it was fun to run around inside. I'm not sure if that's acceptable behavior in Switzerland, but if not I would have blamed it on that kid in the background who started it all.

did they put their arms around each other like that voluntarily? That is the cutest picture ever! Ruby is going to be a great photographer someday, she takes some really good ones!
