Yesterday, Tom and I went in a two-car caravan with a group of expats on a fun Sunday excursion. We went to a really cool ancient rock formation and hiked around, had a picnic, then drove to Nueva Helvecia (the former Swiss colony near our farm) and stopped at the Hotel Nirvana for more refreshments.
It reminded me of our last trip to Nueva Helvecia, when Tom took this photo of a store window right next to our favorite produce vendor. This same display has been up for several weeks now. I keep waiting to see if they’ll change it, wondering if someone will buy the sexy nurse’s outfit. It’s such a small town–it’s probably embarrassing to make this purchase. You’d worry that customers would come in, ask “What happened to the nurse outfit?” and the proprietress would respond, “Oh, Helga down the street bought it. I’m sure Carlos will love it.”
Anyway, clearly the Swiss know how to rock the red cross. If this outfit is still there next time we drop by, I might have to buy it. You know, just so they’ll change the store window display. Give folks somethin’ to talk about.

You might start getting calls from people “needing” red cross assistance.
I just want you to know that Lila — my 5yo — happened to pass by as I was reading this page. She looked at the photo as says “Hey, that’s cute!”
