Switzerland, here we come.

My husband Terry turns 75 later this year, but soon after his 74th birthday he announced that all of  2018 would count as birthday and that the biggest celebration would be a trip in, around, over and through the Swiss alps by train.  We leave in about a week.   I will occasionally post highlights of the trip from the vantage point of four adults, age 70+, finding their way from village to village, mountain to mountain.

Terry started packing 2 weeks ago. Still adding and removing items as he aims to carry everything he will need for 17 days in something the size of a small satchel. I started yesterday:

We are looking at temperatures in the high 70's to low 40's,
hiking in the mountains, strolling the streets, and the occasional nice restarant

 

I think I may be in trouble since a number of items have yet to be retrieved
from the wash and my shoes aren't in there yet.

We will see how this goes.
