Off Early WHoooHooo

This afternoon while working away rather stressed and preparing for the e-mail mountain that will be awaiting my team and I in the peak event season I got a little surprise.  We all did. The founder and president of our organisation decided we could all leave at four.  What a difference 2 hours make.  Anyways,  I would like to leave you with some of my weekend photos in the Geneva sunshine with my friend Louise who was visiting from Manchester.

 Enjoying a quiet moment on my walk home from the post office where I sent my taxes on the last day

  Sipping on lemonade on sun loungers with a childhood friend at Terrasse le Paradis

 Such a view from this little friendly hippy spot

 Terrasse le Paradis from the bridge with the Jet d'eau in the back

  Yum

  Got some heart shaped glasses to show Geneva how much I love her

  I just love the weekend markets everywhere

Bright happy radishes

Dinner at Holy Cow which had extremely friendly and fast staff

 Check out the size of those Burgers

 View of Aux halles de l'Ile Bar in the middle of the river

The Beautiful Louise with her Mango Sorbet

Dreaming back to sunnier times

As the weather is still not it's best,  the number 1 task on my list today is to have a bubble bath.  I find myself wishing I were back in Spain at Casa la Siesta basking in sun rays where I found myself at the beginning of this month as sort of a graduation present.  We were brought these wonderful orange & ginger drinks when we first arrived and sipped they by the pool.  These would be very easy to make at home on a particularly hot day by squeezing fresh oranges, a little lemon juice and adding a teaspoon or so of grated ginger root. Sooo refreshing !

 Thirst quencher & SPF

 Ringo, the house pooch who waits outside to greet all the guests

I love the simple pure design of one of the Casita rooms
