Almost recovered

In my last post I mentioned that we were going to Parent’s Day at the Swiss Army Barracks of our son in Frauenfeld. In fact he sleeps in Frauenfeld due to size constraints but spends all his active time at Auenfeld Barracks a few kilometres away.

I won’t go into the details of the day but we spent more than 7 hours in the car going there and getting back and almost an hour of that time was in traffic jams around Zurich.

We did have a great day though and it was interesting to see all that Davis gets up to and now we can fit images to the faces and places he describes.

Fortunately the sun was shining but it was still bitterly cold and we really got the feeling of real Swiss Army Life which my Son-in-Law described as “running to wait and waiting to run” which seems pretty accurate. I will be posting some pics on Flickr in addition to the few I’m posting here.
