May 3rd, 1961 Paris France and Geneva, Swtzerland


  • May 3rd, 1961
  • Paris, France and Geneva, Switzerland
  • Fair Sunny on the mild side
Hotel rang us about six AM and we were off in a taxi by 6:30 AM. Some delay checking bags through and after breakfast had just about enough time to get our train.  Had excellent reserve seat tickets booked but our car broke down shortly after we started and we were switched to another car where we had to stand in the corridor for some time before they found seats again for us.  Arrived in Geneva about 4:30 PM and found a very nice room at the Hotel Alba listed in AAA book.  Dad has lost his group of Travelers’ Checks and will report it tomorrow to Am. Express.  Thank goodness I had my two books separate so we have money.  Went through French and Swiss customs smoothly.

Met a man from Richmond, VA.  Very good traveling company.  Walked down to Lake Geneva this eve.  Dinner Cafe de Paris.
