Geneva, Switzerland






Hey Guys,

I just wanted to take the time to give a short review of hotel Des Tourelles. It is probably considered a 2 or 3 star hotel, but don't let that scare you. The hotel was spectacular in every way. It is a small and cozy hotel and the staff there are great. Geneva is a small city so getting around is very easy and if you stay at this hotel you will get a free bus pass for the duration of your stay. Although you can use the bus to get around, it is also possible to get around on foot since everything is so close. We stayed in room 34, which comprised of two double beds and a single. We had three people in the room and we were able to stay there very comfortably. The bathroom is a bit on the small side but keep in mind that this is Europe's style in general, they usually have small rooms, bathrooms or kitchens. There was no kitchen or microwave in the room but the staff were kind enough to let us use their kitchen when we wanted to cook our own food. We wood go to the local grocery store (COOP)and by pasta or microwavable dinners and prepare them in the hotel's kitchen. We had no problems while we stayed there and the staff spoke enough English to help us with our inquiry's. You can buy calling cards at the local convenience store and use the many public phones to call home (if you like). We were on a very low budget, which is why this hotel was perfect for us. We also found it more beneficial to eat from fast food restaurants such as Burger King or McDonald's, since the other restaurants were a lot more expensive. Also keep in mind that Europe has a very relaxed lifestyle, which means that their clubs are not like American or Canadian clubs. They mainly like to lounge and talk in a club setting which means that you will mostly be exposed to trance music at low volumes when in Geneva. If you guys have any other question about the city or anything else fell free to contact me or just comment on the article. Enjoy!

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Review


Hey Everyone,

Well I just got back from watching the 6th Harry Potter movie and I have got to say that I'm quite disappointed. I know that you should never expect much from a movie that is based on a book, but since the last one was pretty good I thought this one would follow the same path. Being such a huge Harry Potter fan, I feel very deflated at the moment and even somewhat sad. I expected so much more that what I was given and I feel cheated. I know that because of time constraints they can not show everything but there was a lot of potential which just wasn't met. The movie had a few scenes which were not even in the book, and this outraged me because that was time wasted. It's understandable that the director or whomever wants to add their own creative touch but that could have been done in other ways other than replacing entire crucial moments. Instead of showing the scene with Ginny and Harry running through the wheat field after the death eaters they could have put more of Tom Riddle's family history into the movie. The whole running through the field part isn't even in the book. And what happened to the Dursley's and the talk that Dumbledore has with them in the beginning of the book, asking them to allow Harry a place in their home for another year? Instead they replaced that with Harry trying to hit on a cafe employee. I know I may sound rude, but they should have just stuck to the story line like they did in the past 5 movies. I guess these movies only come with success in odd numbers. The 1st, 3rd and 5th movies were quite good which leaves the 2nd, 4th and 6th in quite a bad position. Let's just hope that the last movie is good. If they replace any more crucial scenes or plot stories with scenes that are not even the book I will truly have a heart attack. Die Hard fans take these things very seriously and so should the production team. STOP trying to get a new edge and make things 'different' and stick to the old true method that keeps your fans happy. Well that's the end of my rant, Hopefully I'll get over this soon and be back to my normal self. See you all then and have a great day!
