Took the 8AM train out of Gare de Lyon. Had to lug all our luggage down the street to the Metro station in Paris- surprisingly painless. Had seats on the top level of the TGV (bullet) train to Lyon, where we got our car and headed to Switzerland.
We stopped in Geneva to see the city and the lake. Very much a business district, but with lots of watch shops. Walked around the lakeshore for a while and headed out to Lausanne in the afternoon.
