Going to San Francisco on Monday to visit the Swiss Consulate and apply for my entry permit - and then off to In-N-Out to have a 3x3 animal style.

Thanks to the excellent advice from Swisspea in what do I do when my permits are not ready, I emailed the consulate a few days ago and just got a very friendly phone call from the consulat staff asking me to confirm my date of birth, and then they sent me the instructions on how to apply for the entry visa - which Swisspea had already given me!.

Thanks for the visa info Swisspea. It looks like it's time to stock up on brown sugar, and as for getting my entry visa - WooHoo!
