Day 8 Farewell Dinner

 Our last adventure in Switzerland was a meal at a locals house

🥰 The home was up a hill and they called Tour guide to tell him that it’s to slippery for bus to come up and for us to park at the bottom. When we pulled in their was a flyer of cars and trucks to take us to their house🥰 snowing but so beautiful I’m for sure making some wonderful memories 🥰. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was festive. Ended the evening with homemade eggnog😘. Couldn’t ask for a better Christmas present

















Audrey demonstrated how to fold the Christmas tree napkin.


Day 7 Lucerne Horse & Carriage Ride - Engelberg, Switzerland

 After our visit to the dairy farm, Horse-drawn carriages were brought to pick us up and take us a ride around town and then to our bus. Snow flurries in the air I’m definitely in the Christmas spirit.

















Day 7 Uli’s Swiss Dairy Farm -Engelberg, Switzerland

 Today it's snowing and we are going to a Swiss Dairy farm.  The owners are Uli and Cecil. They are going to talk about their business of milking their swiss dairy cattle. We were at the ski resort Titulus. Went in and ordered some coffee and Irish cream while we waited for them to come and get us.   They came and had to divide our group in half because we had 40 people.   Half of the group went on a horse and carriage ride and the rest of us had an enjoyable walk to the farm for lunch and to hear about farm life.  

                    



Such a winter wonderland walking to the farm.

When we arrived at the farm someone had made a cute snowman. 

After Uli's talk about how they milk the cattle and the cheese people come immediately to pick it up for their cheese making.






Our group walked around and petted the cattle but all they wanted to do was lick on us. Now it was time to find Cecil who was busy preparing our lunch which consisted of everything made of cheese.

This machine melts the cheese and then Cecil would scrape the melted cheese on your toasted bread.  Can't wait to try this delicious sandwich.


I made Uli a glass fusion Christmas ornament.  She loved it. She told me she was hanging it in a "Pride of Place" which means in a spot where she can show it off essentially.


Delicious lunch
