Discovering Lausanne one weekend at a time

Posted on August 4, 2013 By admin

Every weekend, we try and go walkies in town. We’ve managed to discover lots of interesting places, like the market on Place du Palud where I found my jalapeno peppers and the terroir shop and the gelato and tea shops near Bessieres. There’s also the little oil shop and cafe Coccinelle near Flon. Today, we discovered that if we walk in the pedestrian area in Bessieres, we end up on place St-Francois. Along the way, we pass in front of Blondel, a chocolaterie that’s been open since the 1850s, and Bucherer, a watch and jewellery store that’s not much younger.

Quote of the day

Sam Vimes could parallel process. Most husbands can. They learn to follow their own line of thought while at the same time listening to what their wives say. And the listening is important, because at any time they could be challenged and must be ready to quote the last sentence in full. A vital additional skill is being able to scan the dialogue for telltale phrases such as "and they can deliver it tomorrow" or "so I've invited them for dinner?" or "they can do it in blue, really quite cheaply."
--(Terry Pratchett, The Fifth Elephant)
