(October 30th)
We had a nice time exploring Berlin and visiting Auntie Claire and Matt in their new apartment. The traffic was terrible though. Worst backup of our lives outside of Zurich - 60km. No apparent reason. We did get to drive through Austria and France though, and that was fine. So many people on the roads in Germany and Switzerland.
Our two days in Berlin were packed. We walked through most of the sights on Monday and then on Tuesday spent some time on a boat ride and in a museum. Dinner with my friend Drew on was a lot of fun, and we were surprised by how nice the biggest department store in Europe was. Very impressive, and we don't like shopping!
It was great to see the new apartment in Switzerland. Claire and Matt have a nice spot. We really enjoyed the walk into Solothurn and the girls had a blast playing with the cat. Claire got a bit sick, so that stinks, but hopefully she is feeling better for their trip to the States. Now we have a day to get caught up on everything before school starts. Sure could use a vacation! I am really tired of travelling.
