My parents came to visit me!!:)

My parents came to visit me over my spring break. I had a great time with them and it was so nice to see them! I showed them around my Canton and a couple other cities in Switzerland. In the first week they had the chance to see how I am living, meet Thomas and his family, and spend time with my host family. In the second week, we traveled together to Germany! We visited Berlin and Hamburg.

Barbara and I took my parents up to Braunwald. That is where I would often go snowboarding. It is about a half and hour away because you have to take a tram to go up. It is beautiful up there.

This is Alette. She lives in Hamburg, Germany.  She staid with my family and took care of my brother and sister before I was born. I have heard so much about her but I never have had the chance to meet her.
I finally met her and... WOW!!! She is so cool!!! We are about 25 years apart in age but we had so much fun together. Because I wanted to practice my german and she, her English, we spoke a mixture of both. We have just met and spent a couple days together, but it feels like we have been sisters my whole life! I miss her already and can't wait to visit her again!

me, Aletta <3
