So after I posted the below photo-less post, I managed to take pictures later today!
This is the view out the window of the IT offices. Yes, you read that right, IT is not in a dungeon. No, they have great views like this. To be fair, it’s the application development group that has this view. The Administration guys are still in the dungeon of the server room.
This is out the same window, but to the right. This is the apartment where we’re staying and the window there at the top is my window! (David’s is obscured by the tree there).
At lunch one of the IT ladies took us into Morges to a grocery store – a real grocery store! It was cool! And we returned with the goods: milk, beer, chocolate, a little banana bread, Diet Coke, yogurts, and frosted mini wheats:
Oh, and the bag in the background? You have to buy your bag. That’s awesome!
And as for the chocolate…
The Lindt on the left is dark chocolate with cherry and chili filling – sweet, with a little (very little) spice on the back end. The silver-wrapped Cailler purports to being a milk chocolate, but it’s the best milk chocolate I’ve ever had – creamy, not cloyingly sweet like most milk chocolate. The last, the black-wrapped Cailler “Frigor Noir” is a dark chocolate with a little hazelnut filling. All were amazingly creamy and a great sampling.
After work we just wanted to chill on our own, so we headed out towards Lausanne to find something.
And off we went!
The building in front apparently is a technical college (We were down this way with Bernard F the other night and he mentioned that).
And on we drove.
Laid back…
And we turned around and drove some more…
And to what exotic locale did our jaunt take us to? You don’t want to know…
Yup, McDonalds. Truth be told, we wanted to find something fast – the slow pace of dinner is nice, but we just wanted to grab something and take it back and just rest tonight.
So if you’re in the French-speaking section of Switzerland and you’re in a McDonalds, what do you order? A Royale with Cheese, of course!
Uh… it sounded so much better in the Tarantino movie! Oh well, I’ve got diet coke and chocolate. It’s Friday night and we both have to work tomorrow, so we’ll see what tomorrow brings!
