Geneva.
Geneva c'est bonne. Cheese, chocolate, wine, clocks, and snow capped mountains... everything that one thinks of when thinking Swiss - we experienced. Cheese fondue - Yum.
Geneva was well decked out for the Christmas. On Sunday, we took the train about an hour and change north to Montreux - http://www.montreuxnoel.com/ Montreux, also on Lake Geneva (Lac Leman) is a resort town that is about as picturesque as it comes.

The famous fountain in Geneva - stretched over 450 feet high - water rushes out at 125mph. (I read the back of a pamphlet)
Longhorns? Is that what you call them?

So, how was Geneva? Where did you go for fondue? A tourist trap or somewhere good?
Did you try the Swiss wine or a Raclette?
Ah but the Fountains at the Bellagio in Vegas are just as impressive and there are about a thousand of them there!
