We are here! That was an ordeal. 26 hours. Would you believe I didnt get jet-lagged? This was our first whole day here. Got our RH drive car. Thankfully our TomTom GPS got us back to our host's home. Not without incident. It is quite hairy as the roads are windy and tight curves. Round abouts abound! We have wonderful hosts who have treated us like royalty. Tomorrow we strike out for the northland. I think I'm getting the hang of this LH driving if I can quite turning on the windshield wipers when I should be signaling, arghhhh! It is a beautiful country. The vegitation is amazing! Sending a few photos. Just getting started. Let me know is these are coming through ok. Remember, click on the image- more photos open up Lowell and Gloria ... read more

Yep, All good things come to an end. Tomorrow we take the main liner up to Zurich. Our wonderful 3 week stay at Ulla"s Chalet (Hmm has a ring to it) is over. We couldn't have been more happy with the accommodations or the weather or the area. It has been one of the best 3 weeks we have ever spent in Europe.We did a train ride over to Andermatt, Switzerland just to enjoy one last ride up that valley. Blue skies, majestic mountains, Swiss cows munching up that nice green pasture land, and small alpine villages whisking by. It's a wonderful life. Sounds like a movie title eh? No I'm not Canadian! OK here are a few pictures from today. Remember, click on them to make them bigger God bless He has us, for sure ... read more

Today we decided on another try for a boat trip on Lake Thun. Our last one was sort of abbreviated as we missed the boat and only got half the lake. Today we did a round trip. About 4 1/2 hours. It was one of those "save this day in a bottle" days. So we were blessed with blue skies and warm breezes. Since we were always on the boat I won't have the variety I would like but I hope you won't be bored I wish you all could experience these mountain lakes with the azure blue waters. Time is getting short now and the weather is changing here. Another season is approaching and we must prepare to depart. I hope we will be able to do a few more blogs before we leave from ... read more
