      Switzerland🇨🇭

      June 20, 2022 in Switzerland ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

      We caught an overnight train to Switzerland which got delayed 3 hours ! That’s okay though as we were too tired to do much that afternoon anyway. We are staying at Adrian and Wylinn’s home, who are away on a bike trip right now.

      Our first day here, we had planned to go to the Alps but may have slept for about 14 hours so went and got some cherries 🍒 as there is a 2 week cherry season here and they were the best juiciest most delicious cherries I ever did have mm mm. We then went to the lake which had the prettiest view and went for a swim which felt amazing because we had not been (and we both are definitely beach girls, I do not know how we have been coping) for about 2 weeks. We have plans to find a swimming pool in Rome.

      Anyway, then we planned to get a spritz at the restaurant next to the lakeee but it then started pouringgg ! So we made juice with some frozen berries (thank you Adrian and Wylinn for keeping us fruitfully hydrated👍) and sat on the balcony drinking them :)

      Sorry for the long captionnnbut the day after that Sara went back to Rome and we caught the bus to Zug station together and we have been together for 6 weeks straight so that was a bit weird 🤓
      But I then went to the Home of Chocolate Lindt Museum - in year 2 a few of us were in a year 2 and 3 class so when the year 3s went to sport we would be left behind. So, during this time, Ms Parry would do art with us and we did a term long project on chocolate. We have a little art book that we stuck in different cocoa nibs and powders and drew / painted / wrote about how it is made and it’s history. So going to this museum and reading the displays I felt like was just a revisit into that classroom on the top floor haha. Anyway they gave up some free chocolate and I was fending for myself for the week so I tucked some in for home :)

      That’s all thanks for reading x

    • Day 116

      🇨🇭+ dad

      September 2, 2022 in Switzerland ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

      So I was walking down the street in Zug and this man shouted at me from this balcony and so I went to stay with him and his friends.
      Dad came over to Switzerland and some other countries for a month - his first holiday this long in years - and I caught an overnight train from Luz to meet him in Switzerland at Adrian and Wylinn’s.
      They took me out for a few bike rides and yes I did die going up a huge hill that Adrian PARAGLIDES from (which shows how high it is) and stacked it (not while riding , i fell sideways when trying to get off the bike) halfway up at this hut that you can give some coins for fresh apple juice in. We went up for 2 hours and went up 500m . The sun set on the way down though which was so pretty and we could go down so fast and there were horses too so that part was very fun :))
