Shallow Entertainment

I went to see Brazil playing Ireland last week at the Emirates Stadium.

And this weekend being in Geneva I went to their famous Motor Show to check out some unique cars.

I went to Geneva this weekend, visiting some friends. While walking around the city, I’ve seen two chairs worth mentioning.

In the St. Pierre Cathedral, in the old town, they still keep “Calvin’s chair”. Calvin was a famous protestant reformer from the 16th century. His 500-year-old chair doesn’t look very cosy, but I guess it was cosy enough for him.

In front of the Palais des Nations we found a giant chiar (about 12 meters high) with a broken leg. It symbolises opposition to antipersonnel mines and cluster bombs. Fantastic image with a powerful message!
