Cookie travels

Some football fans must be heading off to Geneva these days, among other venues, to cheer for their favorite team as they play in the Euro 2008 game. Today’s tournament is Group A: Czech Republic versus Portugal playing live at Stade de Geneve, Geneva. Which of these teams is going to move on to the quarter finals?

You can bring your thoughts to writing at the football picks message board of Addictsports.com, which has by far a number of members who like baseball and other sports .

And by the way, if you are in Geneva, don’t forget to buy one of those Swiss chocolates before your flight back home. You can get it at the Co-op with additionally some good-priced souvenirs. It’s located on Rue du Commerce, takes about 30 minute walk from Cornavin train station.

Back to the topic of playing golf at Yyteri Golf Links, I have been reading a travel brochure of Pori and found out that they actually have a golf package for those interested with beach and golf. This golf package includes a one night cottage accommodation for 2 persons at Top Camping Yyteri with sauna or shower, bed linens, towels, welcome coffee, breakfast buffet, and one green fee per person at Yyteri Golf Links at a rate of 149 Euros per day. Alternately, for 81 Euros per person per day, you can enjoy one green fee at Yyteri Golf Links with a night’s accommodation at Yyteri Spa Hotel, and free use of spa and gym. These golf packages can be booked through Pori’s Regional Tourist Agency (www.maisa.fi) but are not valid during major events such as Pori Jazz Festival which is scheduled on 12-20 July 2008.
