6/2/11

Today I woke up at 6:45 so that I could help the Lehmanns get ready for their holiday breakfast at the restaurant.  Everything looked so good and I took plenty of pictures.  After enough people had come, I had some too.  I had cheesecake, which is actually cooked cheeses with bacon on top, a yogurt with strawberries and nuts mix, cheese, bread, and Zopf with chocolate.  Mmmm!

After that, I read my book a little and then took a nap.  When I woke up, I took a walk to the train station to look around.  I found out that a ticket to Wil is about 13 franks, I think.  I skyped with my dad and then with my Aunt Patti and it was very nice to talk with them.

In the late afternoon, I made myself waffles with peanut butter.  Not sure why I felt like having that, but Cony wanted to try it.  They do not eat peanut better as much as we do in the US and I am not sure if she had ever tried it before.  I will make her a peanut butter and jelly sandwich one day because she will probably like that more than on the waffles haha

In the evening, Cony made a pizza for Peter and I to share.  She bought the pizza, but they add cheese and salami to it so that gives it more flavor.  It was very good!

When I was finished eating, Andreas and Deborah took me sightseeing.  First, we stopped at a personal zoo place.  There were just a few animals, but kangaroos were included and I was so happy!  Then we walked down to a bridge that was built so that when you are in the middle, you can rock it back and forth.  That was really fun and we laughed a lot.  From the bridge, they drove me past a gorgeous vineyard where I took a lot of pictures.  Every time they thought I would want to take a picture, Andreas would pull over so that I could.  They were so nice!  We stopped at a park, where we found a tiny frog and then a seesaw.  Deborah and I played on the seesaw for a few minutes, something neither of us had done for years.  We definitely laughed and enjoyed that.  The last stop was at a house that an artist was building to live in.  It was made of stone and had a lot of weird curves and structure to it.  I told them that I did not think it would be very light in the house once it was finished and they agreed.

I was very happy that they wanted to take me to see all of those lovely places and thanked them a lot.  I think that they find me amusing with all of my pictures, please and thank yous, and trying to figure out how to speak German.  I guess that is good that I can make them laugh!
