Sea shipment arrives! And the Versoix festival du chocolat!

We were thrilled to see the arrival of our sea shipment from the states. Everything arrived safe and sound and we continue to settle into our new digs. The boys were thrilled to see their toys and beds - it was like Christmas all over again. We'll update the site with new photos of the house once we get all the boxes unpacked! For now, you can see lots of happy faces as the movers open our shipping container. And Devan finds the Captain Hook accessories!




We enjoyed our first chocolate festival this past weekend - never seen so much yummy chocolate in our lives! This wonderful event took place in our town so just a short walk into the land of treats! The art that went into the creation of these chocolate treats was amazing. The boys enjoyed tasting the samples and looking at the beautiful Easter goodies. And it is true, there is nothing like Swiss chocolate. It is the smoothest, finest you'll ever taste!
Here is a little history behind the chocolate festival:
Versoix Chocolate Festival, March 8th, 2008, Versoix, Switzerland. Just outside Geneva, the Versoix Chocolate Festival is a dream come true for any one with a sweet tooth. The festival is free and focuses on the industry of chocolate. Besides being home to the festival, Versoix also hosts two of the world’s most famous chocolate producers: Cartier and Favarger. In previous years there have been special buses and boats planned for the day to take visits to Versoix from Geneva’s center.


Tasty samples and a BIG egg!





Ratatouille! And a real [chococate] chef!
