We are on our way home, currently in Paris at Charles DeGaule Airport.    Done nicely but the French don’t know how to organize like the Germans and Swiss.   If you ever transfer in Paris leave plenty of time!  We hated to Leave Switzerland,   every where was beautiful scenery and the cousins treated us royally.   And they tell us we left too little time to see much at all and have to come back with more time.     Charles please thank everyone again, we thoroughly enjoyed our time.    Our biggest regret was not having more time to spend with cousin Emil, our short time was very enjoyable.   We met Emil at one end of Lake Lucerne as we took a 1906 steamer (since converted) to Lucerne.  A wonderful boat ride on a warm sunny day.   We had a late lunch in Lucerne and a little sight seeing.   That was Thursday, Friday we relaxed the morning and then Charles let us up the mountain roads to Amden, a town where Marie’s friend from New Glarus hails.   We had ice cream and took in the sights.

More pictures to come, now getting ready for a long plane ride.   And Monday time in the car returning to Oshkosh.

none of the pictures really do justice to being there.

There is Emil! He reminded us all of Chris’s Dad Frank

On the boat ride to Lucerne, Charles Kathy and Marie

We drove on that road, where there are mountains you need to cut into them and through them

The boat we were on looked similar to this
