Bed and breakfasts are wonderful. especially in Switzerland. the cheese. the bread. the jam. the yogurt (this morning was pear/chocolate which was fabulous!)
and the walking. and the shopping. and the walking.
we have had such terrific food here. but it's hard to believe that you have to pay 10 swiss francs for a large bottle of water. ah well. other things like lemon ravioli, spaetzle with mushrooms and fried onions, amazing varieties of salad. and the gelato and ice cream. leave your cholesterol worries at the border.
tonight we spoke with David at Julia's parents' house. he is very much looking forward to our getting there, as are we. 3 hrs on the train and then taxi to the hotel. people don't have big cars there and with three suitcases and 3 backpacks and three people, it would be a challenge. Audrey arrived today. friends of David's from high school come tomorrow. 25 people are going on the bus tour on Friday. tomorrow is schnitzel dinner. it's all great. and i have wedding cards from the "parents" group and jackie to hand deliver.
daniel and i went to the zoo today. we saw everything but the meerkats. they are on the cover of the brochure
but not clearly identified. not in a clear location. ah well.
the electric trams...small street cars... are a lot of fun. we are even getting used to which one goes where. like large mechanical green grasshoppers. we are having a wonderful time.
