What We Found

For the second week of our Christmas break we knew we had to head somewhere warm and put our toes in the sand and sea.  We had always wanted to check out Morocco and knew there was some good surfing.  We arrived to find some warm sunshine, beautiful sand beaches, big surf, creatures big and small, friendly people, delicious food and the usual oddities you find when traveling in foreign countries.

Geneva

As we made our way home from Zermatt to Worthing we spent the night and day in Geneva.  We had no real plans and just wandered around the city.  Prices in Geneva make London seem cheap so make sure to keep this in mind.  The highlights - we had the best italian food we had all had in a really long time and the Natural History Museum is amazing (they have Lucy) and best of all it is FREE (probably the only thing free in the city).
