We took our first roadtrip - an off the beaten track visit - to Le Chaux de Fonds - a town about 1000 meters high in the Jura mountain range. The town borders France (our guide said, "There's Europe"), produced architect, Le Corbusier, and automaker, Chevrolet, and is a center of watch production. Swiss education and neutrality (lack of war losses) are all contributing factors to an unusual amount of noteworthy citizens.


Two of Corbusier's early designs. The bus ride was a test-run for us, as we will soon go for a week to Brussels and Strasbourg to see EU sites.

One never knows THE time, even if you know the time.


A old Japanese alarm clock - bells rang when according to a longburning candle.

We had lunch at a kitschy mountain chalet with a bad case of lawn ornament disease.

Jack runs to the couch EVERYTIME a train goes by.
