By now I should have sent four or five Blogs about this family trip to Switzerland, but there was no Internet accessibility during the long hours of travel, and ever since our arrival in Zurich, Ada and I have enjoyed active and long days, and endured even longer nights as jet lag kept us wide awake when we should have been sleeping!
Derek ordered a very expensive camera lens to give Angela for Christmas. All such items ordered in the USA have to be shipped to me, an in-Country address. Bringing it with me in my carry-on luggage was the safest, but it was a show stopper when it came to security inspection at Heathrow. We still could have made our connecting flight to Zurich, but Ada had inadvertently left a pair os scissors in her back pack, so the second complete search meant we missed the flight! Efforts to contact Hedy Fuglisher who was to meet us in Zurich failed, so we just had to reschedule our flight and wing it. Eventually we got to Hedy's flat, and spent two days with her, touring Zurich and visiting her brother Peter and his wife, where we had a cheese fondu that was delicious! We arrived Friday night at the O'Connors in Basel, ready for our next adventure staring early Sat. Morning. Stay tuned! Love, Liz
