From my daily journal: Page Six
4/22/02 Monday
We're up at 5:00 am to check out. Had out taxi grabbed by some
Ugly American. Got to Gare Leon in plenty of time. No help from
the guy in the information booth. Probably gets tired of tourists
asking stupid questions. Figured out what track, what  train, what car, what seat and we're off. Ride
is very smooth. The first class seats are very large and comfy. We were whisked along
at a good clip and arrived in Geneva in 3.5 hours. We had to
go from the train station to the airport to pick up the car.
I asked a young clerk for some directions and she left her cash
register to go out and help me get a ticket. The Swiss are VERY
nice. Someone left their baggage cart just as we'd gotten off
the train so we had a pretty easy time getting the car.  What a beauty. It's
a Renault Laguna. Uses a "card"  for the key. Drove a
few circles in the parking lot and took off.
