Switzerland!!!

Hi everyone!
We are in Seelisberg, Switzerland.



We arrived on Sunday afternoon; Lali picked us up in Luzerne and brought us to Seelisberg. It is probably the most beautiful place I have ever been! It is on the edge of a cliff that drops off into Lake Luzerne. Every direction you look there are mountains. Each mountain is totally different from the others, with its own unique characteristics and personality. We have gone on several hikes already and plan to go on many more.
On Monday we went for a walk and came across some cute cows.



Yesterday Marco took us on a cable lift up a nearby mountain. It was a beautiful warm sunny day and we walked around to the back of the peak to a spot overlooking the lake. We sat there for a while soaking up the mountain sun before heading back.




There was a huge drop of the cliff, we all had to lay down to look over it…



It has been very warm here this fall. There are still flowers in bloom, including the most beautiful yellow roses.




As one of our jobs here, we learned how to make quince jelly and made some for the dining hall. It has a very nice somewhat flowery flavor. We are having fun playing in the kitchen together.

Holy crap tor!! I have been checking your blog every week and been very disappointed that you never posted anything, and then some smart people (including your bro) explained that you ARE in fact updating quite frequently - and that maybe I was the one with the problem. Anyhow, I messed around on the site and figured out how to get to your new stuff, i guess i just had your first page bookmarked and so nothing else ever showed up!!! You two look like you are having such fun over there!! makes me really miss those witherspoon girls - they know how to have a good time. And those pictures are gorgeous! i thought the switzerland one was a postcard or something until i saw another one with a little torrey head popping out... I stayed with Dee Dee this week and she showed me some pics of y'all as well. I saw a few of a scandelous statue (notice you haven't posted those up here yet :) Anyways, i miss you guys and love you mucho, when you comming back here? love you, love
