Typical Swiss Weekend - a Saturday


The very sensible swiss do not open their shops, DIY stores or "malls" on Sundays - they let the swiss enjoy one day a week. So this means that Saturday is often "shopping" day, certainly Basel is always busier than during the week. What they shop for I'm not entirely sure but there is plenty of variety and not to contribute too far to a sexual stereotype; our weekend shopping consisted of me buying a 42" TV (see here)whilst Claire bought plants!
