Museum entry is free in Geneva on the first Sunday of the month. This afternoon we visited the Jean Tinguely exhibition at the Musée Rath. Tinguely, who died in 1991, was known for his mechanical art.

I'm mesmerised by the narrative in The Rooster by Sibel Roller as she uncovers her late father's hidden past.

We found an indie bookshop in Marseille, near where we stayed, and I decided I wanted to buy a book from them. Ended up with my first foray into French poetry - Poemes Karaoke by Stéphanie Garzanti. I was won over by the dog on the cover ...

At Mucem in Marseille is an exhibition curated by Hervé di Rosa, which includes some works about mines, showing above and below ground. Unfortunately, I didn't note the artist.

I've started reading a poem each day to our dog. I have no idea if she appreciates them, just as i have no idea of what she can smell and what it tells her about her world. They're all so far from Dog Songs by Mary Oliver.

The Geneva Lux light festival finished last night. This year, instead of spreading around the city, installations were mostly by the lake and the rade. I loved these rainbow light beams
