It’s a holiday all over Switzerland today, because it’s Swiss National Day !
We have introduced you to the different national languages of our country, the event that this festival commemorates, or how it’s celebrated in our articles from previous years.

Our friends the Nussbaumies celebrated their 10th blogoversary early July. On this occasion, they were giving 10 gifts to readers picked at random, and we’ve been lucky !

Many thanks, friends, and long live to your blog !
I don’t know how long this will last, but it’s hot again, very hot, too hot here : 34, 36, 38 C (93, 97, 100 F) ! For those of you who live in the southern United States or Australia, this may not be unusual, but for us it’s unbearable..
It is too hot, humid, and the air conditioning of houses or apartments is very rare. So we implement the advice we’ve given you here to protect us from the heat, and set an example for our humans to do the same : hydrate, cool, stay cool, and avoid unnecessary effort.
They respect our advice : yesterday, for example, we had a visit from Grandpa (Claire’s dad) ; after eating, they quietly stayed inside to play cards.
Do you also have these increasingly frequent heat waves ? Or has it been common for you for a long time ?
PS : we’re glad to know that our friend Marg is OK and has nothing broken after her fall on her back yesterday. We send her tons of healing purrs. Get well soon, Marg !
