Peace, love and cuckoo clocks

The second bank holiday weekend (gotta love two long weekends in one month) started when we had to get up at half two to catch our flight to Geneva. The good thing about leaving so early was that we landed at 9 and had the whole day in front of us to explore Geneva, an unexpectedly beautiful city. We saw the Jet d'Eau (massive water fountain), Flower Clock, and took a boat trip across Lake Geneva. Dinner that night included cheese fondue and a massive, albeit brief, hailstorm (great when you're eating outdoors). After surviving that we decided to treat ourselves to coffee, a shared banana split, and an evening watching the final of Eurovision (living on the edge I know).
The following day we hopped on a train out to Lausanne, which was absolutely beautiful. Sights to see included the Olympic Museum (Lausanne is the home of the IOC), the cathedral (quite a hike to reach), and the botanical gardens. The photos speak for themselves.
Our final day was spent visiting the United Nations building and the International Red Cross Museum, before stocking up on Swiss chocolate (to share with our housemates...hehe) and heading home to London.
Work is still going well for us both - it's looking as though I will stay where I am until the end of the year - I should be on a six month contract by July which will provide some security. Dave is still going strong at the pub.
We are planning to head out to Wimbledon or Greenwich this Saturday morning, and are planning to attend a Superleague game - Harlequins v Warrington - next weekend, and after that is the long awaited arrival of Brendan and Jess.
Hope all is well with everybody, go the mighty Roosters.
