Day trip with Gloria

Fall is in full swing in Switzerland now.  We had frost last week and had to dig out the hats and mittens from the basement.  Some mornings are thick with the fog that is typical of the winter months.  

Gloria arrived for a visit on Wednesday morning and the days have been full of snuggling, reading, playing and laughing (oh, and school).  On Thursday while the kids were in school in the morning, Gloria and I took in some of the sights in downtown Zürich.  Friday she spent 6 hours in the Kunsthaus (art museum)- it was that good!  

Saturday we had clear skies and milder weather for our trip to Stein am Rhine.  We ate lunch in a family owned Crêperie... a tiny little place with an upstairs just for us.  We hiked up the steep hill to the castle high above the city.  A beautiful walk with the fall colors and the leaves littering the trail.
