Switzerland - DaDa

Chapter 37 - Switzerland - DaDa


Dear Diary...

After the relaxing days in Hungary, I finally got on my way to France but before I got to France, Dad had some Ideas to take me to Switzerland to visit some very special places he always dreamed to go.
 Now you ask...
What Places ? 
and I answer....


Dad is mad about Dadaism and we love the works of Giger too (more about Giger in late chapters) but for now, this chapter is about the first stop we made in Switzerland and the way there !

Lets start again...
Took us 1 day to arrive in Zurich (Switzerland) . 
 First night (on our way to Switzerland) we stop in a small village to sleep on a back of a church 
(pssst... very nice approach by one of the Nuns in the morning ;) 

We didn't get to stay in Zurich for too long but dad wanted to visit (Cabaret Voltaire
and now you ask...
What is Cabaret Voltaire ?
and I answer...
Is where DaDaism movement started in 1916 !
and then you ask again...
But what it is Dadaism ?
and I answer...
Look at Wiki page and read !!

Switzerland... What more can you expect other then Beautiful Mountains and views !?
IT IS  Beautiful !!

Finally, Zurich and Cabaret Voltaire bar / exhibitions place.
Words ? how can I explain the place ? Its DaDa ! 
Do not look like nothing, is not a Bar but sell alcohol, is not a Museum but still as it was left in 1922.
Is not a Art Gallery but have some exhibition running in the toilets... is not commercial but have a shop under selling Memorabilia...
Dada it is a is, without the Bs but with some niiis !
Thats Dada !
Shocking !?
Thats why Dada exist... to make what is not normal, to create what is Immoral, to change what is normal... to destroy prototypes !
Is no shelf for dadaism !

BUT... Zurich is not just Dadaism, actually, is a very City feel and very square looking buildings.
Ofcorse we had visited the most tourist part of the city. Restaurants, shops was everywhere. 
Very artistic directed (as Giger lives there too;)

After mum and dada ;) have been to Cabaret Voltaire bar drinking something , they walked a bit around but soon left the place to keep driving me up to the mountains to visit (HR Giger Museum in Gruyère, near the France boarder) 

 It was still a long way to go, so they decided to stop in a Camping park for a good sleep, food and shower.

The camping park was in Salavaux and it was a big T.c.s camp park.
T.C.S is a big camping parks company working in Switzerland, they manage most camping parks)
Good Things about this camping park...
Very nicely situated near to a lake and lots of facilities

Bad things about this park...
1 - When we arrived at 7.00pm, was no one on the gate and we have to be helped by some resident in the restaurant to let us go in and get us a space

2 - Next morning before we leave, we had to pay 40 Euros for the night, which was very expensive considering we do  have to pay extra 2.00 Euros for 30.00 minutes of Internet.

 but ey... Mums did Cook a nice dinner and next day we had shower and we were ready to go for the next adventure in the mountains.

Do you want to know what's going to happen next ??

Or wait for one more chapter of

Hungary

Chapter 36 - Hungary


 Dear Diary...

I dont know from where to start... but I will !!!

This can be a long chapter, so its better if I make some points to get things organized.
This chapter is all about the time I have been on Stand with Mum and Dad in Hungary.
Things can get a bit confusing but let me explain...
First we were in Hungary to go to OZORA Festival, then we drove to Romania and after that we drove back to Hungary to relax for a few days before we got back on the road.
During this time when we stayed in Hungary ( with Mums family) many things happened, for this reason I will make some points first...
* Cleaning
* Fiesta
* Picnic by the river
* Mums (pre) birthday.

Ok, After we left our friends in Budapest (Read last chapter) we stopped in Hungary for 12 days.

When Mum and Dad arrived from the Festival they were very tiered from all the drive and dance, so they decide to stopped in Hungary for some days to relax and waiting to listen from a friend about some work in France (lets leave France for a different chapter ;)

* So, first they gave me a very good clean inside and outside. I was fresh as a daisy :)


 * Some days after we had a fest in the town where we were (grummmmtpsss) .
Very funny place but very small too with a fest goin into the night till 2 am :/ anyyywayyyyyy....
Mum and Dad managed to get very drunk and Dance for the folcloric sounds of popular Hungarian artists.
That was a register ;)
Funny street fest. For a couple of days was lots of Artesian showing they're hand work in the street. Interesting and very regional .



* After the fiesta, Mum and Dad decided to take mum`s k-niece Szabina Rácz and her friend Jani Rikker to the river so they could have the experience to sleep inside a Camper Van, as they have never slept in a Camper Van before;)
Very funny !!
Dad parked me 2 fingers away from river Danube.
No one was passing around, so we camp and made the space very cosy and friendly to be there for a couple of days.
Do I need to say, that was brilliant ??
Yes, Swimming, Barbecuing, Drinking, relaxing and... Sleeping :) (at 500 m of a camping park...oopppssss ;)

 After the camping we had a (pre) Birthday Party for Mum. Her family knew  that Mum will be away by that time when she will became 43 Years Old ... Did I say 43 ?? Sorry Mum ... Its 57 Years Old... eh ne !? :)
Oii...opps..mum shouting...says she is only 27...lol




After some more relaxing days at home (in Hungary), Mum and Dad have received the (sooo wait) message from Mercedes with the directions to France
.
YES... Mum and Dad will be Driving from Hungary to France to go pick apples but before that, I need to tell you some more adventures.
Do you want to know what adventures I am talk about ?
INSERT COIN

Yes... what you think !?
When I get to the scrap yard, you will be crying for more adventures.
So Please... save me from the scrap yard and
INSERT COIN

Ok, I tell you...
The next chapter will be...
...
A surprise :)

Keep your Ears open to read the next chapter of...

Chapter - 20 - Key barrel

Chapter 20 - The Key barrel

Dear Diary....
Fuck this !! I am really pissed off !!
You want to know why ??


My key barrel is gone.. broken... 
Dad can not take the key out of the barrel and only can start and stop me.

After some search in car parts, Dad was informed that a original key barrel will cost £120 and take 5 weeks to arrive... GREAT !

After this exciting information, dad run to the garage and ask advise from the mechanic , who recommended him to go to a brokers and get one.
Brokers dont have this memorabilia any more but the mechanic told  Dad ,if he does not find an original, he always can put a peugeot one!!
As they say in India... (same same but different !!)
And so it was... Dad did get a Peugeot one for £20 and run to the mechanic who told him to go back on Thursday to get this fixed... ufff... 
will be a day before I have to go to the T.O.F gathering...

Lets pray....
