Welcome to Watchland part 2: Sea Bugs

Yesterday, I showed you a few photos from my first day in Switzerland. Here are the rest of my favorite Geneva shots:

After walking around for a bit in the rain, we ducked into a cute restaurant overlooking the lake. We had a really yummy pizza lunch. Of course, I couldn't understand practically anything on the menu as I know about 10 words in French, so Thibault had to explain the pizza toppings. At one point, he was trying to explain an item on the menu and asked me if I liked "sea fruit."

When I looked at him quizzically, he responded by saying:

"Oh wait, that's not it. Sea bugs! Do you like sea bugs?"

Because I don't like sea creatures or bugs, it was safe to say that particular pizza wasn't for me. (I got mushrooms.) We later discovered the word he was looking for was "seafood."
