Swiss National Day

Nothing says you love your newly adopted country like renting 2 x 4-seater paddle boats and cruising around the Zugersee, fairing du picnique, swimming, and letting smoke bombs off onto the deck of the other boat.

Despite the attempts of an extremely officious bus driver to kick Ian off the bus (no espresso cups allowed in Fascist Bus Land!), we arrived at the top of the Zugerberg, had a lovely barbecue, watched the sunset and, later, the fireworks from about a bazillion little Swiss towns and villages.
Switzerland, you're okay.

  2. I'll pass on the nugget of history to Swiss Mister...

    Yes, one of these days we should stop relying on iPhone and remember to bring our camera!
