Geneva (pronounced /dʒɨˈniːvə/; French: Genève IPA: [ʒənɛv], German: Genf (help·info) [gɛnf], Italian: Ginevra [dʒiˈneːvra], Romansh: Genevra) is the second most populous city in Switzerland (after Zürich), and is the most populous city of Romandy (the French-speaking part of Switzerland). It is situated where the Rhône River exits Lake Geneva (French Lac Léman) and is the capital of the Republic and Canton of Geneva. In 2004, the population of the canton was 441,000, that of the commune within the traditional city limits 185,526, and that of the metropolitan area — which extends into neighboring France and the Swiss Canton of Vaud — about 960,000. Geneva is widely regarded as a global city, mainly due to the presence of numerous international organizations, including the headquarters of many of the agencies of the United Nations[1]. A 2007 survey found Geneva to have the second highest quality of living in the world (narrowly outranked by Zürich).[2]

The Ariana Museum houses one of the richest and most beautiful ceramic and glass collections in Europe.
Some 16,000 pieces of pottery, stoneware, earthenware and porcelain are on display, in addition to 2,000 blown, moulded, engraved or cut glass pieces. The collection represents seven centuries of work, ranging from the Middle Ages to modern times in Europe, the Near East and Asia. The building itself, in Neo-Renaissance style, is a true jewel in the centre of a vast park.
Venice (Italian: Venezia, Venetian: Venezsia, Latin: Venetia) is a city in northern Italy, the capital of region Veneto, and has a population of 271,251 (census estimate January 1, 2004). Together with Padua, the city is included in the Padua-Venice Metropolitan Area (population 1,600,000). Venice has been known as the "Queen of the Adriatic", "City of Water", "City of Bridges", and "The City of Light".
The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers. The population estimate of 272,000 inhabitants includes the population of the whole Comune of Venezia; around 62,000 in the historic city of Venice (Centro storico); 176,000 in Terraferma (the Mainland), mostly in the large frazione of Mestre and Marghera; and 31,000 live on other islands in the lagoon.

The Adriatic Sea is a body of water separating the Italian Peninsula from the Balkan peninsula, and the system of the Apennine Mountains from that of the Dinaric Alps and adjacent ranges. The Adriatic Sea is a part of the Mediterranean Sea.
The island is home to three settlements. The Lido itself, in the north, is home to the Film Festival, the Grand Hotel des Bains, the Venice Casino and the Grand Hotel Excelsior. Malamocco, in the centre, is the first and for a long time the only settlement. It was at one time home to the Doge of Venice. Alberoni at the southern end is home to the Fort San Nicolo and a golf course.

Taken from Iceland during my trip in February 2012 while driving along route one from Jokulsarlon to Hofn. The view of Vatnajokull (Skaftafell National Park) is so stunning even in cloudy day.
Along the way there were many farms to explore, you can see Icelandic horses in many places without difficulty.
