As far as I know it is a holiday. The company I work for in Zurich will not be working that's for sure.

Wednesday afternoon, Thursday and Friday. All off. Great! If the weather holds out I plan to spend some of it cycling around Lake Constance.

Strange - the website mentioned June 5th as Father's Day. In any event, having come from a tropical country and having enough of the heat, will be heading north to Munich.

I'll be most surely working... on my sun tan... on the beautiful beaches of Greece!
About time I go see the ruins of the civilization that I had to study for 5 years! |
