The flight from Houston to London took 8 1/2 hours. I was fortunate to be able to sleep for about 6 hours. Garry only slept for 1 1/2 due to wiggly neighbors. May 21: In London, we met the Ashleys and the Aarons adn flew together to Geneva. And in Geneva, we connected with Mom & Dad and Giselle Dubrez (our friend and hostess in Switzerland).
After a little detour (we got lost), we found ourselves safely on the road to Nyon (Giselle's home--a suburb of Geneva).
Giselle was the perfect hostess! She took us by the chateau (where she had gotten married), through the city garden and down to the seaboard. There she bought me some postcards. And then, feeling very European, we walked back to her flat (i.e. her apartment).
Aaron, Nan and Ashley had gone running and ended their run when they met us down by the castle. Once back at the flat, we met Philippe Dubrez (Giselle's husband and also our friend) and chatted with him and Giselle as we laughed and ate his homemade pizza for dinner. Then their daughter Christine came for a minute before we all headed to bed. (Christine made a few trips to the states to stay with our family when she was younger.)
Sounds fun!
