Sorry for the lack of posting recently. We have been wireless, busy, but wireless. We now have regular (not the free internet access in the park*) internet access! I will update more on the fun things we have been up to in the coming days.
In the meantime, all I can say is that the gods have been smiling upon us. When you arrive in Geneva, the first thing you need to do is find an apartment. We got our keys right after landing. This is unprecedented. Our belongings arrived soon thereafter, very rare. We were able to go right to Swisscom and open an account for phone, cable (would be good if we’d purched a TV here yet) and internet. Also rare. Finally, thanks to the sound advice of friends, we immediately purchased a washer and dryer. They were delivered yesterday. This is HUGE here.
The importance of reliable, convenient internet access cannot be understated. It makes it feel less like camping.
*The free internet access is great. Unfortunately, I found it a bit slow and there was often the threat of rain.
