Arrival in Switzerland

Our first day in Switzerland was very nice. I like Switzerland much more than I expected. But it could just be the company. It was quite obvious from emails that our host family was a warm wonderful family, but they are even nicer in person. What a great welcome, we were instantly made to feel comfortable and at home. Pictured we have the mother of the family with two of the three children and a neighbor child.







We all went to Rheinfalls together. A very beauiful place that we had never heard of. While it is no comparison to Niagra falls in size or mass it is more impressive in how close one can get to the falls.
Five giggly girls. Here they are pictured during the serious business of organizing candy. Our daughter is instantly at home here.
The small village they live in is like something out of a postcard. To us it looks fake. Almost like a "Swiss Village" at Disney land. But unlike so much that we have seen that has been reconstructed for tourists, this was the real thing,
