With a little luck…
Joe – The weather has taken a turn for the better. The sun is out, and after breakfast on the porch, we are going a wandering.
We just returned from our first hike in Switzerland. Three Swiss Grandma types set next to us on the train platform, also waiting for the train to the mountain (Uetliberg), so the pressure was on from the start. Getting my out-of-shape US butt kicked by a small Swiss mountain and alte Swiss Großmutters is no confidence booster. Maya seemed to fit right in though.
We had great views of Zurich, several cow sightings, and got to watch paragliders taking off.
There was a line of paragliders waiting to take off.
See Ali’s post for the far funnier, and perhaps slightly more cynical version of the hike. BTW, I’m giving up on being a better blogger than Ali. She’s just plain funnier than I am. I’ve got Maya in my sights though.
I don’t know if Ali is funnier (she probably is), but she’s definitely faster to post than you – is this the same hike she wrote about 5 days ago? Seriously though, thank you guys for doing the blog – we do read it (or I do). I’m glad to know you made it safely and are settling in. We miss you already.
