First Snow

It was nice of the weather to wait until we were settled in to have the first snowfall. You can see the leaves are still on the maple tree. The snow didn't stay too long, but without any sunshine, it is still pretty cold during the day. Add a little breeze, and it is downright nippy!

The List

In case you are wondering what we have been doing our first week, here is a picture of the list we have been working on. Almost everything is checked off, and now I can check off one more thing!

Picnic on the Gurten

The Gurten is Bern's "Hausberg" or local mountain. It isn't all that tall, but you get a lovely view of the city as you take the cable car up. The young adults had a picnic there last week.

Just to prove that we are here.  One of the young adults took this picture of part of the group, and insisted Sue get in the picture.

This is the view on the other side of the mountain.
