bonjour!

I'm off to a good start in Geneva! I'm living in Thoiry, France. Looking at the map in the link, you can see that Thoiry is just to the northwest of the French-Swiss border, and it's only 6 km (4 mi) from where I'm working at CERN. The lab is the triangle underneath the Route de Meyrin in the picture -- it has a circle in the middle, and crosses the vertical French-Swiss border.

I've had some excellent bike rides to and from work in the good weather. There's also a convenient bus to take, and it looks like I'll be getting a car, soon, too. (The first car I will have owned since Pickle Bill in 1999!)

I haven't posted new pictures yet, but you can take a look at these from September to get a good feeling for the lay of the land...

Hey! I just watched this cool 2 minute video of a story on CERN over at the NY Times. Pretty neat video!
