While L was visiting me, I took her and another girl visiting someone else, S, to see the United Nations. After some confusion getting in, I took them to the major conference room and the General Assembly room, and we walked through the major hallway full of marble and an art exhibit which also has lots of windows. In fact, we saw a peacock outside (and heard it, doing its mating call) because when the land was donated to the then League of Nations, it was done under the condition that there be peacocks on the grounds. Then we took pictures outside, because I haven't been really touristy there yet:


 The view from the front of the UN- over the Lac Leman (Lake Geneva)

 The well-known entrance with a flag for every member state

Memorial to all land-mine victims.

I don't remember showing you guys what I see at the UN every time I go, so here it is! No pics inside because I'm not sure its allowed, but its really nice there too. For those who come visit, I'll take you :)
