Hi everyone -
It was a beautiful day, sunny and 70 degrees. We toured the city of Basel today focusing on the old city.. We're slowly adjusting to the time change and hopeful by tomorrow we'll be fully adjusted. Basel is wonderful.
Please see the pictures attached.
Love to all -
Eric, Nicole and Lorraine

The Rhein has a VERY strong current. Therefore, a cable runs across the river connecting to the boat. Then the boat can then run across, without any type of engine! Basel (Eric took this)
