If we don’t feel safe yet
Traveling to places we want to go,
Then let’s embrace virtual travel.
Go with me to the most beautiful country:
Switzerland!!
My daughter, DeAna, lives in this gorgeous country –
I’ve shown you this picture recently of them in front of their restaurant:
De & Andre’ have three boys,
Mike, Nick, and Chris.
This week I received photos from Mike
( I think it was him who sent them)
sharing a wonderful meal they all enjoyed
at Mike and Tania’s apartment.
Natalia (Chris’ girlfriend) is in Colombia,
so she was not able to be there in person.
Thanks to ZOOM, however,
she was in the room for an hour!!
There is Nick with Celine:
(That’s Mike and Tania in the middle…
And Chris with Natalia on the right)
I love the internet because it allows
Long-distance grandparents
To be part of their grandkids’ lives.
Thank you, dear grandsons, for sharing with us!
Travel with me to other parts of
Switzerland!
Doesn’t it make you want to go there?
It really is picture postcard perfect everywhere you look!!
We forgive you, Andre’,
for taking DeDe with you
to this beautiful country.
If there is some place in the world
where we HAVE to travel
because our family is there,
we can think of no better place than
Switzerland!!
Here is our daughter, De,
singing a duet with our youngest grandson, Chris.
At the end he says, “My ball of rice!”
That’s his reference to Natalia.
So sweet.
Aren’t they cute?
Thanks for joining me,
dear blogging friends.
Sante’!! To your health!!
Have a good night.
See ya tomorrow.

Beautiful blog
Thank you! Hope you were able to feel the beauty of that country! <3
Please read my post
I did… and I agree, it is our mind that limits us. Sometimes that’s a good thing. If we went along our way without those boundaries, we’d be pretty sorry people!
That was reeeeeeally fun to hear our duet again! Thanks so much for sharing all these photos (and Chris was the one who shared them on the family WhatsApp group 😚). We are sooooo looking forward to seeing you and pops in October! This damn pandemic will hopefully be slowed down enough that travel is allowed! Please oh please oh please! I love you, Ma. Have a wonderful week! 🥰❤️✨🐝💖😘😚🐞🍀🌞🙏☺️
Ah, God bless Chrissy! <3 I looked for the share there and didn't find it, but the photos showed up in my picture spot. I love 'em! And yes, we are counting on that October trip!! <3
Have a great week, sweetheart. Don't work too hard!! <3 Love ya! <3
Wonderful photos! Thanks for giving us a virtual vacation!
Thanks for tagging along! Have a beautiful day. Mine is blowy and snowy…
Fabulous photos, Jan – the family ones and the scenic ones. I remember reading ‘Heidi’ by Johanna Spyri when I was about 8 or so years old. I was enthralled by it and that’s what your Swiss photos reminded me of.
I love the duet with De and Chris! I listened to it earlier today and had to listen to it again . . . and will probably play it some more! They both have beautiful voices, which harmonised wonderfully together. They have obviously inherited this from you. 😀 It was like listening to a clip from a West End musical.
Your response makes me smile, {{{Lesley}}} <3 Thank you! 😉
Yay! 😃 xx
Thank you for sharing Switzerland and your family. They are both beautiful!❤️
Thank you, {{{Susan}}} … Have a wonderful rest of your day… snow mobiling? (Lucky you … the sun is out!!) <3 I appreciate your company on my virtual travel! <3
This was so heartwarming!
Thank you, {{{Rahul}}} – I appreciate your companionship on the journey – and your time to comment. Have a great rest of your day. <3
what amazing pictures!!!
Thank you! I love Switzerland. You can see why, huh?
Such a beautiful and breathtaking country. Your family live in a fabulous part of the world.

Yes, they do! Thank you for taking a virtual trip with me. Here’s to the day we can safely travel for real again! <3
Just waiting for the days when we can travel 🙏🏻🤞🏻🙏🏻
We are waiting, too, but expectantly – as we make those travel plans in anticipation <3
Absolutely.
I can’t wait to go to Spain to see my younger son.
