On Wednesday, we asked at the hostel for a crepe restaurant, and they didn't understand our American pronunciation. I finally had to write the word down and they understood. We all laughed. But now we know that we can't say "crape". We must say "crep", with that deep 'r' sound. Maya inhaled a goat cheese crepe!

Listening to music at the Montreux Jazz Festival
Maya on the swing at the Montreux Jazz Festival. It turns out that Maya was more interested in the playground than the music.
The Chateau Chillon on Lake Geneva. Swiss castles have clocks!
Russell on a castle latrine. The reading material was his idea.

I am so thankful for the well-placed mini parks that we have run across.
