Long weekend in Rheinfels & Aachen (Germany), Aals and Maastricht (Netherlands), 1-4 May

Tania in town! 12-13 April

She brought the sunshine (perfect for the kids' Sechselauten parade too), a tonne of baby stuff (so Peany won't be running around butt naked) and thoughtful things for the soon-to-be mummy and daddy too (the cookies disappeared rather quickly). We regaled her with ... a night of Tibetan mantra chanting at the local Helferei. But not before ensuring that we all reeked intensely of fondue cheese.

Photos from our weekend in Appenzell, 18-20 April

Just posting photos for now because there's quite a backlog from our weekend trips ... yes, me bad, I haven't been updating the blog regularly.
