Saturday at the beach - the beach we went to near our place was equipped with a pool, fountains to play in, sandboxes, a playground and swim area. The kids were able to run free. The best part was they actually serve beer!
Our family in Weggis, on Lake Lucern. I met my new friend Lisa, from Highlands Ranch in the Post Office the month before we were leaving. She overheard me while I was trying to get my mail forwarded here and came up to me to introduce herself. Small world! She was born in Switzerland and vacations there every summer with her family. So we met up with her and her family and enjoyed the day with them at Lake Lucern. A truly breathtaking setting. Our temporary place was only a 15 minute drive to their house. Its amazing where you will meet new friends.
So after the long weekend, I am now back into reality and feel like I am in a somewhat of solitary confinement because of the lack of English speaking people around here. It is hard for me since I am usually always busy with friends and family and things to do...so, it is getting lonely and may be this way until we move into our new place in the more international town. I hope and pray to meet moms from the kids school when they start on Aug 12th...it is an international school and I have heard there are other American families there. I miss the social interaction that was my daily routine in the US!!
