Switzerland is a conservative place where people do not want to stand out. Therefore walking down the streets of Nyon, I was surprised to see a young person come towards me in a gorilla costume, although the head was under his arm. Soon, punks, dancers, fairies, skeletons, a highlander in kilt, the Hulk and people in weird make up filled the small pedestrian center.
Even if the weather matched that of Halloween, it was still early May. The youngsters had to be early or late for trick or treating which is a relatively new phenomenon in Switzerland.
My writer friend explained that one of the schools had a costume day around exams to lighten the heaviness of studying.
May Monster Madness can be fun.
