Last year, La Chaux-de-fonds and Le Locle received recognition from UNESCO for outstanding universal value.  These two cities that almost touch one another were built completely around and for watchmaking. The Musée International d’Horloger is located in La Chaux-de-fonds.  We still haven’t visited this museum dedicated to horology. I can’t for the life of me [...]

I love Neuchâtel

April 7, 2009

…I really do.   Almost enough to leave my Jura mountains.   The nice thing is I can always visit Neuchâtel when I need a relaxing day in the city. I like all the colorful stickers wrapped around poles. Spring flowers. We sat back with our feet stretched out as we relaxed by the lake. [...]

Afterwards, the kids got to eat hot dogs and french fries at one of the [...]
