What happened on Monday ?

We told you Saturday that Claire was looking forward to Monday, here’s why :

#1 from the Poupounette Gang is in Switzerland for a few days for professional reasons, and she and Claire have arranged to get together.

Claire picked her up at Lausanne train station on Monday night, and #1 came to dinner at home.

Pixie, the pussy that hides under the blanket at every visit, gave her the honor of welcoming her in person. Claire and Momo couldn’t believe it ! #1 had gifts for us, and we had gifts for the Poupounette Gang, especially for its new member, Ollie : he will tell you soon about it.

I was naturally a perfect host, and I know she was thrilled to meet us.

Happy return journey, #1, convey our greetings and the petting of our humans to our buddies at the Poupounette Gang !

Busy

DEFINITION : a lousy attempt to apologize or explain expressed by a human (on vacation !) to justify that she does absolutely nothing to help you visit friends’ blogs and read the 228 articles that have been waiting for you for four days while she had time to have a migraine and thus stay in bed for 48 hours.

Beside this, Claire keeps saying she’s looking forward to Monday : do you have any idea why she’s saying that ?

A week in the sun

The weather has been beautiful all week, and the temperatures were very mild, too mild for the season.

So we spent a lot of time in the garden, and Claire and Momo were able to take a beautiful stroll along the lake

Unfortunately, these weather conditions are extremely dangerous in the mountains ; an avalanche descended on a marked track and killed one person a few days ago in Crans-Montana. Our thoughts go out to the victim’s family, a patroller, and to the people who work on trail safety. If you like skiing and mountain, be careful in the Alps !
