The Frenchie Fair!



















On my way back from Saas this week, what I thought was an early launch of the Christmas fair caught my eye. I got off my bus and inquired further by weaving through the stalls receiving countless stares for carrying a pair of boots around in the middle of Fall. It was actually the Francaphonie Fair! All french speaking countries and areas (Louisiana!) had booths set up and there were various performances. As I sat by the water, waiting for the next bus, A group of teens came over and started lifting each other and singing in perfect key. I missed the bus, watching their impromptu performance for a half an hour. Not even a hundred funny looks could have torn me away from that!

Fun times in the artsy-fartsy town of Montreux!
