Montreux Jazz Festival 2017

After living here for many many years and never having visited the Montreux Jazz Festival decided to correct this fact. We decided just to go to any of the many free concerts put on at the festival. At first we wondered along the promenade and Alessio got his chance to go swimming as it was a very hot day!

Then we walked in the direction of the festival and managed to get a shaded spot at one of the free venues. We stayed there the whole time and heard quite a few different bands and they were all really great! We did not really sample much of the festival better to have stayed the night and enjoyed the evening but then you need to book accommodation well in advance! Maybe next year!!

Happy Swiss Day for tomorrow!!

Storks!

My parents arrive on Monday and since then the weather has been just horrible, they have not been able to do much. So yesterday which was Good Friday was the first nice day so out we all went, and I drove to the Greifensee.

On our walk we spotted these storks in their nests, it was really amazing to see them and one of the parents was looking after the baby.

And sadly the weather has gone back to rain, rain and guess what rain! Tomorrow hopefully will be a better day!
