Phew, made it!

Pretty much our first sight in the airport was this shop. Too perfect, with cuckoo clocks, cows, and St Bernard dog toys all in the frame!

And here are a few random pics taken before we landed in Zurich.

Our first glimpse of Switzerland this time around.
In Switzerland even the farms and fields are neat and precise.

San Francisco to Lugano: we made it!

A beautiful day for a beautiful view of our San Francisco departure

We drove to Palo Alto; flew from San Francisco; switched planes in Munich; landed in Milan; were picked up by Ramesha’s sister and his Dad; had lunch in Canobbio (the village near Lugano where he grew up); and finally arrived at our little apartment in Aldesago around 4:00pm Switzerland time.

Even through a car window on an overcast day our approach to Lugano is stunningly beautiful.

We slept very little on the plane, so the goal was to stay completely awake until at least 8:30pm so that we would be more likely to sleep through the night.

It’s now 9:30pm, so as soon as I finish this it’s lights out for me.
