National Holidays



Technically I can celebrate three national holidays. If I were in Geneva on the 4th of July I could have gone to the Bout du Monde for a typical holiday, but I wasn't.

However tomorrow is France's birthday and we are having fireworks. There are at least three street balls and a couple of concerts and I can just wander around.

On August 1 it's the Swiss birthday celebrating almost 720 years of democracy. We're planning an open house and I have my train tickets ready to get back in time to help my housemate all the goodies.
Hopefully the neighbours will do their firework display like last year over the lake, but even if they don't the 14th will have enough ooooos and aahhhs to hold me.
