I’m loving the fact that the Swiss (well at least in the part of the Switzerland where I live) have lots of local traditions. One of the customs here in Nyon is decorating all the water fountains in the town for Easter. This is to celebrate the melting of the snow in the mountains and the return of the water to the rivers and springs.

The snow melted way back in February, and Easter was also late this year but I’m a fan of any tradition that involves local businesses and schools doing a bit of craft. Here are some pictures of my favourites (and one that Mark thought ‘could do better’).
Mark was not impressed with this one as it was 'just a bit of pink ribbon'
Hope you all enjoyed your Easter weekend and had some fantastic weather.
