No I haven’t spelt Sea wrong, “See” is the word for Lake!
A quiet start to a Friday morning, catching up on work before the weekend!
Benjamin out the door at 8am and taking himself off to kindy (at five)..they teach them independence early here and live in a safe city! He walks home again at midday!
The adults took a walk to the shops.
Through another park with a swimming pool complex (puts Waiwera hot pools to shame) gardens, pools and fountains..
To the bank, to withdraw some of the local currency, Swiss francs, supermarket to replace Florian’s beer and buy transport pass ready to hit the Zurich Party tonight!
Home for a Russ rest, lunch and wait for Benjamin before the afternoon excursion to the “See” (lake).
Through another forest, around the edge of the lake to the swimming hole.
The parking lot – bikes galore! Popular summer mode of transport!
To our patch in the shade at the lakes edge.
Florian, Verena, Benjamin and Russ jumped in!
Sue amused herself watching the confident ducks(?) make themselves at home on our blanket. These guys have the biggest feet I have ever seen on a bird, it looks like they are wearing flippers.
They kinda look like short, fat “Pukekos” our kiwi swamp bird.
“The Jetty” reminds me of a Sam Hunt competition winning poem, Jaxon and Dan!
And the Swiss all relaxing at the beach! And a Kiwi in the middle, sitting in the shade….
Benjamin and big people needed enjoyed the swims, icecream, coffee and a nap!
Time to leave, as the after work people were heading in…a 30 degree day (celcius) warrants a swim wherever you are in the world.
Time to wake up and get ready for the biggest party in Zurich, which happens once every three years!
All who wander are not Lost girls
