Rick Does Swedish Days: And I Love a Parade

Perfect weather for the grand finale of Swedish Days 2011.

"People come and go so quickly here."

Geneva becomes Oz for six days a year, full of color and interesting characters. It takes brains, courage and heart to pull the thing together, that's the lesson that I learned while covering the event since Tuesday, as well as the ever-present truth that there's no place like home.

Perfect weather greeted the Swedish Days parade crowd, and the viewing was cool, comfortable and entertaining.
