My bug is back with a vengeance. When I get sick, normally I just lay down and sleep for two (sometimes three) days. This time, I've been pushing myself to spend at least half a day moving around and I think I set myself back. Vertigo and exhaustion are back. It meant that "Site Archeologique de la Cathedrale Saint-Pierre", rather than being "a" destination for the day, was "the" destination for the day. Then, I demanded sushi and a nap. I hope this is over soon. Sigh. | |
One thing I haven't been able to bring myself to do in Switzerland is eat dinner in a restaurant. The cheapest option we found was a Korean restaurant (in Geneva) that would have cost about $100CAD for a simple dinner for the two of us. Brent was ready to suck it up and go for it, but I just couldn't do it. We had dep dinners the whole time we were in Switzerland. |

Excavation of previous churches and chapels underneath the existing chapel. Fascinating! -

One thing they talk about is how this beautiful tile floor had some sloppy repairs over the years. You can see a really noticeable example of this in the bottom-right corner where the "weave" pattern goes from being great to being "WTF-ey".
