In the beginning of July the same guys who moved all our things to Geneva will come and help us pack it all again, and then we areoff to Finland. Well, maybe not exactly the same guys, but the same company. Very good and reliable.
But before going – Fete de l’Oiseaux in Gex. Nr 489. As crazy as ever when it comes to outfits, confetti and music, and as usual the whole town was out watching. Only this year they changed the route, so last year’s wine service outside our house was out. But we could see that drinks were provided anyway.
Spring has been variable. The last days very hot, now turning into slightly colder and more cloudy days, but still warm and humid.
We have spent time in the South of France, house hunting. Africa came with us and behaved very well. She is a truly easy dog to travel with, happy where ever she is, never complaining. First we were in Languedoc, in the little hamlet of Bourras, in the Cevenne mountains north of Montpellier. A truly wonderful place, but probably too cold for October. So now we are trying to find something in the Luberon. The problem is that there is rather too much than too little to choose from.
I still have a few more weeks of work to go, but I now have a new status. Media Director i.r., namely – irresponsible. Meaning I have handed over all responsibilities to my successor, and therefore I can spend my time only doing nice things, talking to people, saying goodbye and spreading happy and possibly also disruptive thoughts all over the place.
