And here is this year's Miss Fête des Vendanges, a Swiss-Marocaine.
She has interesting hobbies, like la danse orientale and boxing.

Sada, is this event in Neuchatel or in Cressier?

In Neuchâtel.

I will be there tomorrow evening, Saturday.

Hi guys, Im here with a couple of meets, anyone fancy sharing a bottle or two??

Sounds good to me.

Were also cycling from Biel, maybe around lakes, or up the Chasseral if we're feeling brave. Will post an event if your interested?

Cheers

I will be getting drunk at this festival, guaranteed!

Supposed to be a pretty big deal here. First time this year for me.

yeah it is. especially for the drinkin'.
One night its the Swiss Germans having a go and the next night its the locals giving it a go.

The inbetween is pretty much for everyone.

Enjoy

Definately a big deal - l will be partaking of multiple adult beverages with local and international friends from work.....

So - if you see a local Swiss-French, a British Israeli, A short English-American Female, an Indian, an American and German wondering around - say Hello - Im from EF!

I was under the impression it kicked off at noon today? Not that it matters now...

Unfortunately I really don't know any of you yet but would like to! Only moved here at the end of July so don't know many people at all! Anyone want to meet or something let me know.

Which night is the local one, you mean Saturday? The Friday is always for the other Swiss? Or was it more of a joke

Went tonight... incredible numbers of beer stalls and food stalls....

.... and SOooooooooooOOOOOooooooo many people.....

If you dont like crowds...and I mean tight tight crowds - I would not recommend going.....

sooooo many people....

And an Awful lot of extremely good wine.....
and beware - the damn funicular does NOT run all night.......I almost collapsed by the time Id walked up the hill to the station!

I was wondering what the bleep was going on today!

Last night was for the locals. It was really lovely !!!
Later this afternoon people will come in from all over the place.
The Swiss Germans love to show up for this Wine Festival for the obvious reasons

Better than an extreme amount of awful wine

Are you sure that wasn't due to the wine.

Sounds like it was a good event. It is good to here positive things about events over that side of the country, rather than mainly the Zurich area.

It isn't finished yet.

I wonder whether those EFers who came down from Zurich got picked up by those dear good samaritans who collected passed out folks from the streets during the night ... ... chuckle ...

How good were the wines? Any recommendations?
