TipTopSwiss 236:366

Another highlight of the Winterthurer Musikfest - a grotesque comedy trio from St Gallen.

John and I especially enjoyed the 'poesie in English' called "I luuve too-nels" recited in an exaggerated SwissGerman-English accent and extolling the virtues of loving tunnels in a country with so many mountains and therefore tunnels! (You had to be there really...)

TipTopSwiss 230:366

Bit frustrated that the Winterthur Musikfest has just begun and I can't really enjoy it as I'm not well - standing up for long periods is not easy! However, I managed a quick circuit this evening to hear music from the two stages and see a few minutes of the famous film, Metropolis being projected at the "outdoor cinema with live musical accompaniment".
Here's the logo projected on Winterthur Kirche. Love the note as the tail!

Lisibo's 2012 challenge

This blog is my 2012 challenge - post a photograph of the something Swiss, and share a word or two in one of the languages of Switzerland every day for a year.

This follows on from Window on my world 365 my 2011 challenge to photograph the view of / from a window each day, and Trees365 my 2010 challenge to post a photograph of a tree.

And if you want to follow my family's first steps as we settle in Switzerland, you might like to see SwissMiss-Adventures.

My professional blog is called ¡Vámonos! and looks at teaching and learning in the 21st century, with a particular focus on primary language learning, creativity and the use of technology.
