Wow, What a great day

After the best sleep of the trip , in the fresh air and quiet of the Swiss mountains we started our day in Switzerland.  We toured around Luzurne , with stops at the Dying Lion, a stroll down a cobble street to the open market where people were buying flowers , cheese, bread  and of course chocolate for Easter.  We also walked thru two covered bridges from medieval times.  We had some free time to wander and I had a coffee with Mr. & Mrs. K.  Best coffee of the trip.  Then back on the bus for the gonola ride up the mountain.  It was very cloudy, so our trip thru the clouds was magical , but the view at the top was not so good.  International snowball fight between Canada and Mexico , with Mexico taking the match was the hightlight of the trip for most kids.  Very expensive lunch at the top.  Then off to France.  Just finished a two hour supper, which was delicious.-- for me anyway.  A stroll around town and now off the bed.  Tomorrow we will go to the catherdarl in Reims and then on to Paris for a walk around the Latin quarter and possible bateau tour of the lights of Paris.  Should be another great day. Wake up is at 6:45 so off to do room checks for me and then night night......
