We woke up early today for our trip to Switzerland. After breakfast we headed for Gossau, Switzerland to visit Seraina Giger and her family (Seraina was a foreign exchange student I had in school this past year). On our way to we stopped at Rhine Falls near the town of Schaffhausen in northern Switzerland and close to the German border. The falls are a spectacular sight to see and are the largest waterfalls in Europe. After a short visit to the

falls, we were off to Gossau. As most people are well aware, Switzerland is one of the most scenic nations in the world, and this was reinforced as we headed south toward Gossau. Gossau is a small city in the eastern part of Switzerland, near the larger city of St. Gallen. We arrived at the Giger's home at about 2 PM to a wonderful welcome. We unpacked the car, settled in and had a great afternoon ........ taking a walk in the Gossau area and chatting and getting to know our hosts. Gail and I immediately knew that we were going to have an exciting and fun few days with our new friends. Seraina's mom, Eliane prepared a very tas

ty traditional Swiss dinner, Raclette. We all thoroughly enjoyed the dinner as we talked, had some wine and all enjoyed each other's company. Another great day on our trip.

Hey...
don't worry if you don't write for a few days...that means you're too busy and that's a GOOD thing!
Remember to stop and smell the roses...or drink all the bier, as Bob is attempting!
enjoy...
