My (belated) birthday present from C was a trip to Geneva last weekend to see their fantastic hour-long fireworks show.It ended up being a fantastic weekend full of sun and good food (and great fireworks).It was set to music - a nice mix of both modern and older songs.Le bouquet final :I definitely recommend it if you like fireworks - but bring a picnic and get there early in order to get a good seat. I had to laugh at the people next to us, who took the picnic idea to the extreme. Over the course of several hours, they cooked a full sack of potatoes, sausages and even chicken legs on this tiny little grill:And then there were these young Frenchies, who brought plates, silverware and real wine glasses to enjoy their meal:They sure do take their eating seriously here.
