Joan. Wow, look at that tunnel! Did it go for a long time through the mountain? The mountains are amazing, they are so straight and snow on the top looks really pretty. It's it amazing how old everything is? I am looking forward to hearing about all the different adventures. The photos and stories so far are really great to read and I can't believe how many unique things you have been able to do. Say hi to everyone for me.
Linda and Sophia - the tunnel looks really cool. Wow I wish we could go to a lolly factory one day. What an awesome adventure you are having.
Zoe HamiltonI'm wit Joan - look at that tunnel! Fern and Griffin would love to drive through a mountain, I'll bet. You'll have to tell them what it was like. I think your apartment looks fun - are those beds for you and Ruby? Looking forward to hearing more about your adventures over the next few days.

Ross McIntyreHi Sam and Ruby, it must be good to see Nannie healthy and enthusiastic. Crikey, you can't keep rabbits out of the action!
Joan. Sam we can't believe you love Les Lapins Cretins. It was Shaun, Sarah and James's favourite show when we were in France too!Actually it was the only show they wanted to watch. Best news of all it is currently on GO (channel 88) so when you get home ask mum or dad to record it for you while you are at school. We think it is funnier in French than English but it is very funny. It is lovely you have been able to visit Nannie and she is getting better. How many more sleeps until Legoland? take care.
Deb - Hi guys, I love French tv shows, some of them are really funny but probably because I don't know what they're talking about! You must be so happy that your Nannie is feeling better, that's really good news. I loved your photos of Switzerland, it's such a beautiful place and the chocolate there is really yummy :-)
