July 28, 2009

I took this photo in December 2008. I talked to my mother tonight on the phone. She told me that she had seen our little red train on television. There was a program on the other night about Swiss train lines and she happened to catch the Jura line. It was so nice that she [...]

Last week’s beautiful snow

November 3, 2008

We walked for about four hours in Bern on Saturday. I shared some of the photos with you already but thought I’d share a few more. There was a big market where we bought some fruit to snack on. We watched a rally supporting Georgia. The sign reads “The more Europe cares, the fewer are [...]
