Ritual return

Coming back to Geneva is almost ritualistic now. It doesn’t matter if it is a weekend, a week or more.

1. Stop at potty before going through customs. The handicapped has more
room.
2. Clear customs and make sure passport is safely away.
3. Stop at bank
4. Buy tailleul bread.
5. Check window for new colored pencil animated display. Nope this time it is still the two Eskimos fishing while a polar bear looks on.
6. Buy monthly bus pass, a great deal at 70CHF and will be even better when I turn 64 in July and the price drops to 45 CHF.
7. Check to see if any LeMatin papers are left
8. Hit Boky, Mikado or restaurant under the train station for sushi. The
location depends on what I am toting, time and temperature (I wanted to say
weather but decided to use three t’s)
9. Grab either the 8 or 16 to Rive then the E bus. Admire the Lake, jet d’eau,
and mountains if it is daytime. Imagine them if it is dark.
11. Check out the life size cow with the glasses in front of the optometrist’s in
Collonge.
12.Get off at Corsier Port.
13. Walk down the hill, totally entranced once again by the beauty.

In this case 13 is a lucky number.
