In the garden, Switzerland - 29th August 2013
By: egni
Hello!
Today we stayed at home. Egni and her hubby were busy in the garden. So I walked around and found a lonely little deer.
I say him "Bamby". It is so cute.
Later on I had to help them putting a net over their grapes, as the birds and wasps are biting them and than they will addle.
It was a hard work, but we all were happy after all.
Tomorrow there will be a surprise. But we will come back very late, so I think the next letter from me will come on saturday evening.
Good night mom, big hug!

Sankt Gallen, Switzerland - 30th August 2013
By: egni
Gruezi! That is swissgerman and means hello!
Today egni and all her former fellows had a trip to Sankt Gallen by bus. The weather was fine and all people twaddled a lot, it was a great noise around.
Sankt Gallen
Arriving in Sankt Gallen we had an interesting guided tour in the areal of the monastery. First we visited the great and impressive library. Unfortunately is was forbidden to take pictures, because the very old invaluable books must be protected from to much light. This is the cause, that in the old openend bibles, shown in glasscases, every week another page is to be seen.
Afterwards we had a look to the minster, with all it's ceiling frescos, wonderful benches and carved confessional boxes.
Ceiling fresco
Confessional box
We heard a lot dates and names, but I can't remember, it was to much information to me.
On our walk through the old town we saw a lot of old patrician houses and jugendstil windows and oriels. Sankt Gallen is a very nice town.
The most beautiful oriel.
After dinner, our group started to the "Fliegereimuseum Althenrein". There are lots of old aircrafts to be seen and all what have to do with the flying. Some of the planes can be chartered for an hour or so. Surely with a pilot.
I like this one most, mom.
This is the emergency equipment, the pilot take with him, if he had to eject.
Sure it was interesting, but only the men where exited. The women listened and look to the pretty pilot who gave the instructions .
An interesting day and I'm very tired from all I have seen.
Good night.

Stäfa, Switzerland - 31st August 2013

Today there is a fleemarket on the place by the parish hall.
Egni hopes to sell some of the things, she don't need.
Ready to go! All we take with us, is on this little transport trolley.
There were many stands, but less people to buy something.
Most of our things, we had to take back home. We were disappointed.
But anyway it was interesting to see and meet lots of people. All the time egni get hugs from other women, they laughed together and we had an amusing day.
Lots of love, mom!

Grüezi!
Egni and her hubby have so much to work in the garden. I must go to help.
Today they want to paint their old fence. It really looks bad.
Before painting!
We had to work the whole day. First the garden gate was refreshed and I must say: I looks very good. Next picture shows the difference.
Before and after painting!
In the evening we were very satisfied and tired.
Good night Mom!

Tomorrow Egnis hubby has his birthday. And she don't have any gift till now!
So we went outside searching for a CD from Amy Macdonald. Her music pleased him very much.
But sadly we don't find one. Nothing, nowhere! What to do? We had to think about the great problem and a rest on a very special bench.
Do you ever sit on so much money, Mom?
Wish I could send it to you.
Love you, Mom! Bye for now.

Today the thrift store where egni sometimes goes for helping, celebrates its "Sommernachtsfest". All the helpers had to ware clothing from the store. They had many attractions, for example a great tombola.
I could help selling the lots and giving out prices.
On my walk through the store I took a rest in this nice doll's pram.
We had a lot to do and all the people were enjoying the warm evening.

Bathroom, Switzerland - 18th September 2013
By: egni
Help, help - oh Mom, egni will to bathe me. She thinks, I'm very, very dirty. She took away my clothes! But I don't like bathing. I fled on the faucet.
But of course she found me there.
The water was warm, and there was many lather. Oncemore I tried to escape. But without results.
I was scrubbed from top to toe, than I was dried, and after my clothes were ready too, I feel like Nils again.
And now, Mom, egni told me, that tomorrow we are going to Vaduz, together with other women. That's why I have to be a clean and proper little bear. Now I understand.
Write tomorrow againg.
Bye Mom.

Today there is Slow-up at the Lake of Zurich. There are many activities along the street.
I go to a fleemarket with egni. We want to sell lots of things to earn some money.
I helped her, setting up the stand.
Also on the stand besides egni, there is still much to do.
After we had made some money, we get hungry.
So we went to the cake buffet - jummy.
In the later afternoon we were happy having sold lots of books and other things. So we had a heavy purse!
Fleemarket is so great!
Bye mom!
