There's a one-man oompah band outside my window

.
I didn't think it was possible. I never thought it could happen to me. Then I moved to Switzerland, and ended up living in an apartment that overlooks the Ouchy marina. It's very beautiful, very touristy, and very, very strange sometimes:




I cut off the video just before he said "Thank you!" into the mike. And in case you were wondering what happened next, he's still rocking outside my window.

I miss Switzerland! All I have here outside my window is Giuseppe fighting (talking?) with his wife.

Is this dude part of the Riviera's overall marketing plan?

Could this be the but the first taste of summer "Ouchy" style?

Ian,
Secretly, your toes were tapping. Vicariously, I'm loving that view.

He had a lot of "oom", but not much in the way of "pah"... Pretty tepid, no?

I hope you're getting the Led out over there. I mean, just in general. Getting the Led out. You know what I'm taking about. Squeeze my lemon. Zeppelin. I think the mountains of Switzerland and the quaintness of Ouchy echo so much of what Robert Plant was trying to tell us.
