Konstanz, Germany

Anina and Jeremy kicked off their Swiss adventure today, with an exciting itinerary planned for the next five days. Afterward, they’ll head to Milan, where they’ll begin a three-week tour of Italy in a camper van.

Meanwhile, Ursula and I went food shopping at Migros and later we all made our way to Konstanz, Germany, for a brief visit and a sushi lunch.

To our surprise, we ran into Wally's longtime friends Käthy and Pedro at the same restaurant. What a coincidence! Käthy and Pedro, who operated a car repair and service business for many years, hired Wally as a mechanic when he returned from Canada in 1979, and they've been close ever since. They now split their time between Switzerland and their beautiful vacation home in Piedmont, Italy.

It is 6:30 and Wally just served us a special white wine, made from red grapes. Cheers!

A promising light dinner (green salad, bread, cheese, salami) is being prepared by Ursula and Wally.
