Join Joseph on his visit to Zurich, Switzerland when its residents welcome spring in celebration. On parade day, Joseph joins the Bakers Guild for a romp through the streets of Zurich to the square where the Bogg (snowman) loses his head in a burst of firecrackers. Once he is engulfed in flames winter is banished and the citizens of Zurich use the glowing embers of his pyre to roast sausages.
