About 5 weeks ago, just before I left California, I was mentioning to my neighbor that I was going to be in Switzerland during my time away, hiking the Via Francigena.
During this conversation she said in passing, some 60 years ago she lived in Lausanne and had attended a private all girls Catholic boarding high school.
She provided me the name of the school and kiddingly said. "I haven't been there in 55 year's". If you see it, take a photo and email it to me".
Today, a rest day for me in Lausanne, I got up late and walked to wash my laundry.
As I was walking, about a block away from where I am staying I walked by this gated school and there it was, the school my neighbor had attended some 60 years ago.
Needless to say I was shocked at stumbling upon this location without even looking for it.
