Nothin' but blue skies...
Without a doubt the best part of having Pete, Zoe, and Baby Abby (who are now on a plane back to the US) visit us was just being able to hang out with good friends. We've said it before but we'll say it again... we miss our friends from home! I can't even begin to express how fun it was to have them here. We laughed. A lot. I love laughing. I especially love the gut-wrenching, eyes-watering, almost-peeing-in-your-pants kind of laughing. We did a lot of that.
It was also great to get to know baby Abby. She is just precious. Anybody who uses kids/babies as an excuse not to travel should take a few tips from Pete and Zoe and Abby. Maybe she's just an amazing baby, or maybe they're just great parents. But whatever the reason, we all concluded that 4 months old is the best age to go along on a trip to Europe. I'm looking forward to visiting DC sometime soon so I can also get to know 2-year old Toby who stayed home with grandparents. I have a feeling traveling to Switzerland would be a bit more challenging with a toddler.
Somehow we were blessed with beautiful fall weather throughout their visit. All sun all the time. It was sunny on Friday when we went to Pilatus.
It was sunny on Saturday when we went to Freiburg and drove through the vineyards of the Alsace.
It was sunny on Sunday when we explored the outskirts of Basel.
And it was sunny on Monday when we went to Engelberg and Titlis.
Four straight days of sunshine on vacation? How often does that happen?
