Easter Mad In The Chocolate Capital

I'm still catching up on our big trip and will be doing so all week. Today's lesson is how a country built on chocolate (and illicit banking, but that's not very tasty!) goes absolutely bananas over Easter. This sort of thing...


...was everywhere...

And just like here in America, it was made of the utterly worst, waxiest, cheapest chocolate around. Poor Easter bunnies! Oh, and not a single Peep anywhere to be seen. The JustBorn company has some globalization to do, methinks.

Beyond the candy, though, there were signs of Easter every-frigging-where. Even in random shop windows like Anika's costume shop...

And doesn't a demented Easter bunny just make you want to buy a Swiss watch?

We were relaxing over a not-great cappuccino in Geneva at a cafe called Central Perk -- we'll get to THAT later in the week -- when I noticed this hideous, hopefully seasonal, light fixture...


I actually have no idea what this one is about but it has something to do with something called Biolust.ch...


And here's another that stumped me. It was on a bus. From what I've gathered with help from an online German-English dictionary, it reads: "Easter? We'll be open." But, Bugs Bunny, why the long face?


Maybe it's a depression hotline or something? You know, from someone who got the seasonal blues because the chocolate bunnies were so gross?
