In the event of fire...


I'm so used the typical fire escape notices (i.e. floor plan with 'YOU ARE HERE' red dot and green arrows to show how to get to the nearest fire exit stairways) that I had to read this one twice before it registered...

Funny thing was, I was on the ground floor and I could just jump out of the balcony, experience a terrifying 1 metre freefall and end up on the streets. =) Funny folks, those Swiss in Les Diablerets. But on hindsight, the people who parished in the Paris fires died of smoke inhailation while trapped in the stairways, so the notice above is rather sensible.






Ahh, my favourite picture of the lot. Who can resist the Alps??
