35 people have been tasked to make a 30s video explaining what they do. I get to edit the whole thing. What can go wrong…

Hit him! HIIIIIIT HIMMMMMMM!
Ben wanted to go on the bumber cars. Note, bumber cars, not dodgems. Switzerland is not ruled by a bunch of elf’n’safety pansies. At first, he was all “nooooooooooooooooooooooooo”. After a couple of minutes, he turned into a blood-thirsty maniac who was yelling “HIT HIIIIM! HE LIKES IT!!”
A very satisfying paw
When you’re stressed, just look at Pavel eating his paw and everything will be better.
Kodo: One Earth – Evolution
Katy, Bean and I went to Geneva to see the latest incarnation of Kodo’s One Earth tour: evolution.
I was, in a word, disappointed. Oh, don’t get me wrong, there were still moments of brilliance, but the show didn’t live up to the larger-than-life dragons who suddenly slither on to the stage or the shaggy-haired, old-style forest ‘demons’ from the One Earth: Mystery 2016 tour. This show seemed almost too technical, too slow, at times. I didn’t feel the mad, raw energy from the previous show. The group of special-need kids behind us that didn’t stop talking the whole show probably didn’t help either.
ding dong? no, no, no. DING! DONG!
My 3 favourite muppets in the same sketch :)
Teaching the classics
For Halloween, we all watched the Thriller video. While parts of it haven’t aged well at all, it’s still a classic. Bean wasn’t impressed…
No idea what’s happening here
but it looks really, really fun!
Morges, Parc de l’Independance
This is where the tulip festival is. It’s also 5 minutes from our house.
How the scout meeting ended
Katy loves the Swiss scouts. She keeps saying “my brownies were never this fun. All we ever did was play rounders”. It should be noted that, besides his last-minute injury, Bean enjoyed his camping trip and it was the first time in a looong time that the St-George camping weekend didn’t get rained on :)
