Is life ever not real to you?

It was for me this past weekend. Usually, it felt that way when things were going down but how happy and grateful I am to see what its like to feel it when things are so incredibly up. There are no words, really - I got nothing. What I do got is pics of the Switzerland temple and part of our day in Bern - more to come, just give me a week:)

Incredible - sessions in 7 different languages

My best friend and I in the BEST place - all that we have visited have been unimaginably good and great but THIS is the best!
In the dark with the Swiss flag . . .


We stumbled across Einstein's house - literally stumbled just minutes before it opened - He discovered and wrote about his theory of relativity here . . .

Writing to Mr. Albert . . .

The view from his window -

Fall was definitely in the air!

Where in the world is Susy?

Me along the river . . .

The two of us with the city in the background -


CHALLENGE - write a caption for this pic and I pick a winner and send you something from Italy . . .

Nothing better throwing leaves . . .

Totally love the pictures, I'm so happy y'all are having such a fabulous time. I love that you stumbled onto Einstein's house. Did you just drop your gelato on the sidewalk and when you looked up you said "hey, there's Einstein's house. Maybe we should check it out."? Sweets.

So here's Ethan's caption to your scary picture.
"Hey, we're dinosaurs."

Personally I just thought you were just reenacting the moment at exactly 1:08 in this video clip.

The reason I still play "No bears are out tonight" in Peterson, Utah. When I'm like, 29 years old (or maybe 34 but who's counting...)

Word verification: porra

Hello All!!! We are in Barcelona!

All the quotes are good and you have until sunday for some more - - I know Mario must have something hidden up his sleave as well as the rest of you crazy and creative visitors!

Dani - it has been incredible and you best believe Europe needed some of yours and Wendy´s headbands - they will soon rule the world!

Wendy - You are literally right about how we stumbled onto the house but I dropped my Strudel not gelato:) Also, Ethan´s caption rocks! Tell the kid he´s in the running . . .

Abbacadaba! - 29 year olds like to have fun too! and you best believe that ¨"porra" is a spanish word, it is a nickname for head:)

Emily - - - oh, I do remember! I am the worst, so sorry dear precious cousin! For the dip you mix equal parts mayonaise and sour cream - you then add onion powder to taste as well as a spice called bon apetite, and a LOT of dill!!! Mix it all together and . . . there you have it! Mia´s INFAMOUS dip! Love you and with your next comment I will give you the stawberry sheet cake recipie since you only asked me . . . a year and a half ago!!!!!!
