the mountain and st.gallen

having our dear friends visiting for a week was wonderful! and when ever there are international friends with us, we tend to see sights in the near by country site and cities. that's what we did last week, going to stein to  watch the cheese makers at the "schaukaeserei". and st. gallen with it's two wonderful churches  of "st. laurenzen" and the "stiftskirche" with it's "stiftsbibliothek"

and as the weather got better, we decided to head up to the saentis and go for a little hike to "feel" the swiss mountains! of course breathtaking views are to be enjoyed up there. even as it was a bit cloudy, it's spectacular.

of course there were more adventures, many hours of "tichu" and puzzling. enjoying meals together,singing and make music, moments we treasure and will keep. of course remembering the times when we lived together in boston and shared so many a moment for over 2 years, it's long since but still very close and deep friendships which have been renewed. thank you, dear friends.
