Travelog for: Small Fry

Ah finally the pictures!
Yesterday we went for a walk in Fribourg, a town of 35,000 inhabitants near the swiss capital, Bern. Sunshine show me the old part of the city, protected by the UNESCO. I saw a swimming Pool but it was closed. It's too cold to swin...

Then the city Hall.
Fribourg used to be a very religious city. That's why there are a lot of churches. The most famous and the most beautiful is the cathedral St-Nicolas whose tower is well-known in Switzerland. Then near the cathedral there are the Basilique Notre Dame and another church in the area is called "Les Corderliers"

Yesterday's last event was the CIRCUS!! Yeah, I went to the national swiss circus owned the the family Knie. The circus makes a tour of Switzerland and last week-end it was in Fribourg for 3 days. Unfortunately there are no picture of me with artists or elephants, only the following ones:

Yesterday just before the circus, I saw 2 museums: The museum of history and art of Fribourg. The second one is dedicated to Jean Tinguely, a famous sculpter of the 1960s born in Fribourg and of his second wife, the amercian Nikki the Saint-Phalle. Both are dead now but Fribourg built a museum for them and I saw a Nikki's sculpture in the park of the museum.

2 weeks ago I spent one afternoon in Vevey. This town is about 50 km far from Fribourg and it's near the Lake of Geneva! We only hung around near the lake, drinking Caramel Macchiatto from Starbucks, chatting with the swans and the sparrows...

During my stay in Switzerland I also went to Aarberg for the "Onion Fair". The fair was not interesting at all because they were not many onions!! Only stupid stuffs you can see everywhere. But Aarberg is nice. I saw the Main Place, the Church and the river.

I met a zebra in Fribourg. (ok, ok it's not a wild zebra. It belongs to the Circus Knie). Doesn't it look soooo sad alone in its park? I'm glad I'm Traveling fish...
