Busy, busy, busy, no time to blog

No time for blogging!!! Sorry to those of you who have wanted to follow us on our travels, but they have us so busy at Our Chalet, and there are limited computers. Only 3 for 92 girls and their leaders.

I am having a great time - not sure about Izzy. There is far more hiking than she anticipated.

Izzy has been sick and we have struggled with that, but she was feeling better today, and I am so proud of her participation. She made it on foot to our destination, and we had great fun swimming in the glacier lake after a tough 1-1/2 hr. hike up the mountain and a gondola ride to the lake. When we have a place where we can post photos, their will be many for you to view.

Switzerland is just gorgeous!!! We have hiked every day. The Girl Scout events have been fun - at least I think so. Isabelle is a harsh critic, so I'm sure she has some complaints. It is so fun for me though to be alone with her and getting to know her better and watch her conquer some of her fears. Yesterday we went repelling. First a 10 meter drop (30 feet) and then a 25 meter drop (75 feet). Izzy did it even though she was sick - she was a trooper.

It is Suisse Night tonight at Our Chalet. We'll learn about Switzerland and eat fondue and learn Swiss songs, etc. We are well worn out and should sleep like babies tonight. It took us a few days to work out the sleep thing, but I think we have it conquered now.

Later - Jenn
