Such a lovely evening to share with neighbor, Francesca. Nik and Christina are great hosts - Nik cooks most of the time, and well too! The boys "do their thing" and we do ours ;) ...a little wine or coffee or tea, some conversation, sometimes an apricot tart to share....life is good!
Next on to hospital in Basel...this is Andy, Daniel's roommate. Turns out they have a lot in common as well as their disease. Both he and Daniel did quite well with their treatment and Andy took us a bit around the town, as well as accompanying us back to Zurich, where we look forward to meeting up with he and family soon! From there we went on to Winterthur and Hegi, where we stay now for 3 weeks.
Several times we have seen skies like this overhead - rain showers which clear up and come back the next day or so. Summer weather! It makes life exciting, especially when the thunder comes with it.
Meet the ever-clean Mimi...a "Kima" cat in larger size! (for you Crystal)
This is the view from the front door of Nik & Christina's house, where we are staying. So very Swiss! The house across the way was a renovated barn I believe...very lovely. We are enjoying our privacy now while the family are away for 3 weeks - before we get our own place in town. Jo is coming in early
August, which will be wonderful.
So there's a taste of Switzerland and our life here at the moment. It is a bit hazy and unsettling since we have not established out own apartment and rhythm, but we are doing okay. Daniel has been doing amazingly well considering what he has been through. Everyone is being exceptionally friendly and kind and we are so grateful!
Hope you are having a great summer!
ciao for now.......Joya
