This morning the family left to run in the escalade.. this is celebration centuries old whereby one of the kings of france apparently tried to invade
geneva at night but a lady who making a pot of soup saw them trying to climb up the walls and tossed the hot soups over the climbing soldiers stopping them, meanwhile she had the chance to warn others and hence the invaders were not successful.
So there is a run.. of varying distances according to the ages of the participants. They have come home with a Marmite a certain shaped pot, made out of chocolate and filled with chocolates.. also they win nice prizes.. this time it is a lovely plate, perfect for serving snacks on.
I am feeling quite well, and the dog seems to be on the mend.. so all is well.
