an alphorn in the house


a friend of ours was coming home with an alphorn "under his arm". what a unique moment for the kids to try their skill of blowing the so very swiss instrument!
it is not very easy to get a sound, even harder to be able to play a melody... it sounded a bit like a goose... but never the less lots of fun for everyone involved and hanging around the house. of course we took turns in trying it, and laughed a lot! (here the sound of an alphorn trio)
