Gstaad – Aug. 19
A quicky today. Visited Gruyere (famous for its cheese and heavy cream) and Gstaad (famous ski spot of the celebrities). Coming home from Gstaad we rode through the Jungpass. Remember, we are riding on a bus (standard transmission) through the narrow rodes of the Alps. The scenery is breathtaking, but the ride reminded me too much of my recent drive up Mt. Washington (times 5). At least I wasn’t driving this time!
Need to pack tonight for our 3 day trip to Paris tomorrow. We’ll be traveling by high speed train. I guess it takes about 3 hours. We are scheduled to visit the Louvre tomorrow night, and we have reservations for a night cruise down the Seine the following night. On Friday we return back here to Switzerland where we stay until Aug. 28.
Good luck to everyone running the Lynn Woods Relay tomorrow night. Sorry I can’t do it this year.
Time for dinner. Will write again when I can.
Roger, I want to see you riding that bike when I get home.
Sue and Cindy, thanks for taking such good care of the cat.
Cindy Estella, sorry to hear that you got a dousing from my window boxes.

Hi Billy–Went over to visit Tinkerbell around 9:45 this morning. I think she is getting use to me coming over. She did a lot of rolling around. picked up a few fur balls. I can’t believe there were any for the amount of brushing I give her. Billy is doing the relay tomorrow as you know. I think I will go and watch with Debbie. Glad to hear your vacation is going so well. I think you all will need a weeks rest when you return. Sending my love to all of you, Susan
