Exploring Lausanne

We’re slowly adjusting to the time change!  Yesterday afternoon, we explored more of the city, and this morning, the other spouses and I did a tour of a wealthy home overlooking the city which was turned into an art museum (fairly unremarkable except for a handful of Degas dancers) while the faculty shared vocational journeys (yes, I got the better end of that deal!).  Then we all walked up the steep cobblestones to tour the Lausanne Cathedral.

lunch yesterday–bread and Camembert!

Hermitage estate (museum)

Statue of William Tell in front of the Palais de Justice

Is it a cuckoo clock if soldiers march out instead of birds?

Moses portrayed with horns, common because of a mistranslation in the Vulgate

painted sculptures–rare to have so much color survive so long
