Another day out

Before I post these pictures, I need to explain my daily barriers to becoming "swiss".  I learned this week, after multiple attempts at translations, that children here are required to cover their notebooks from school.  All the notebooks are provided by the school, and the its the parent's job to cover these flimsy notebooks (I have no idea how many, but apparently its a lot).  I'm assuming its to cover them like we would cover hardback books from school. So I bought paper from the store, ready to cover these notebooks, and the next day, there is an article in the newspaper, that the state of Vaud, no longer requires children to cover these notebooks.  So now I have nice skull and crossbones paper to wrap birthday presents!

Anyway, being the end of August in Switzerland, its not warm enough to go to the pool, so we all went to the park.
