Sunday Afternoon Hike

I left my apartment this afternoon and went for a hike above my town. Vinyards were all around as I made my way through several towns, including Grandvaux. Let's just say it's much easier on the way down than on the way up. The pictures don't do justice to the view that I had from above Cully!!!

Swiss National Day

Swiss National Day is today so happy Swiss Day to my new friends in my temporary home. See link for history.

History of Swiss National Day


I spent some time at the Cully Festival which was nice.

Here's my street decorated with Swiss Flags.


I like boats.


Did I say I like boats?

Life's Good

When I received the job offer to work in Switzerland, they didn't have to twist my arm for me to accept it. It's such a beautiful place here. Words cannot describe the beauty and photos cannot tell the entire story.

Today, I walked down to the waterside which is only a couple of minutes from my apartment. Below is what I saw.


What you cannot see too well are the Alps on the other side of Lac Laman (Lake Geneva). It was a bit cloudy but still picturesque.

After having some healthy ice cream : ))), I returned to my apartment and relaxed on the terrace with some red wine from the region, and some Skype chatting with friends back in the USA.


Not that is cannot be challenging, but life is good!!!
