Zurich, chocolate and family

 



Entering the city of surprises and fun






Notice the cobblestone street 




 
















Always a fountain to refresh 


























My Claire is ready to make the hike up the steps to coffee and other delights 









Not just a cute smile, but great coffee
and 
pretty flowers and paper goods 






and then  the main event..





Yes, that is real chocolate...and wait for what happens upstairs 




Yes, that is white chocolate 




And dark chocolate



just imagine milk chocolate
your spoon full of its goodness 
all you desire 





Hard to leave...but another very special time is just ahead












Watching for the arrival of  our cousins... Anne and Gerhard, we have visited many times through the years, and now they are in the 90's  ,,, 





Anne and Gerhard 



A special conversation... My Tanner remembers two years ago they had a visit and now he is sad thinking this might be the last. 




uninvited visitor 




Always a special lobby 




Inside tables too,
But we ate outside
appetizers to
desserts 













Family goodbye hugs 




A long ride home, but holding on to lots of memories from a special day 
 


I live an exciting life

Thun

 







































way up high my Tiffany is waving.... 

I stayed down to take pictures, someone had to do it

Then, lunch with crepes..






Yep.. Seb and Dale  took a ride  





This one is for you, my other Barbara  ♥








The main street has two levels of shops
I must have been so busy going in and out I did not catch another picture

Now we are close to home
delightful spots









time for a little rest and then a walk up the hill







A swim for some....















And then it was time to walk back to the brown house for dinner  



Progress on the puzzle  


I live an exciting life
