Häberli Dubach Holidays in the REKA village in Montfaucon
Ella Tili, her rucksack and Mama on the way into "Ferien"!
Calling Papa! We go on holidays!
First of August was a fantastic evening and we set off for a pique nique dinner at the Les Enfers Chapel!
"Rennä" home and calling Papa once again!
Early morning coffee with Mama!
Shopping by bycicle and with rucksack!
No Mama, you promised Bisons, but these are water buffalos!
At last we found them at the end of Switzerland! in Boncourt! (also a Papa had to "schimpfe" with his son because he did not "fouge"!)
Waiting for the train at the end of the world - in front the biggest cigarette company in Switzerland, but the railway station completely abandonned, and not even an "automat" for Ella Tili "zum Drücke"!
Thoughtful on the way to REKA creche...
...only to decide shortly afterwards that this is nothing compared to Les Lucioles and Arc en Ciel, in fact completely inacceptable!
And anyway, creche with Linda, Vera and Kilian is so much better!
Reading books with Vera!
A real good breakfast before setting out on the Pre Peti-Jean- La Combe Hike!
Discovering another subterrestrial mill...its water disappearing here in La Combe! Where will it re-appear again?
Ella Tili misses Ice-Cream in La Combe!
And swimming every evening was the high light of the day! In the end Ella Tili paddled like a dog all alone into the pool and back!
Kilian is the greates, thinks Ella Tili!
Oh she can be a little pain at times, things Kilian!
Now on the way to Soubey!
And we found the water of La Combe re-appearing in the mills in Soubey!
Well deserved ice-cream in Soubey! All kids great hikers!
Patiently waiting for the train in St. Ursanne!
Every evening a story - and none of the kids missed a single moment out of it!
Another great summer day waiting for us! Breakfast on the terrace!
Early morning excursions into the green grass in Piji and bip!
Thanks to wonderful babysitting of Linda, Mamas had many peaceful moments together! Thank you so much, Linda!
Mama's Plum tart too good to get dressed first? Or maybe "Mi"?
Last hike of the week: to the chapel the women of St. Brais had constructed during the war! Ella Tili sharing a banana with Mama. She peeled it herself!
Salad, deep fried carp and French fries are the two first courses of the "Menu Maison" in the "Pomme d'Or" in Montfaucon - warmly recommended says Ella Tili!
Ella Tili and Mama ate it all! It was really tasty, and Mama thoroughly enjoyed to go out with Ella Tili, she is such a great girl already, and everybody in the restaurant was impressed! She evcen went to pay for Mama, and brought the credit card back!
The best ever "Cremeschnitte" to sweeten off the end of our holiday!
I have been writing short stories since living away from my home country Switzerland. Living abroad is the encounter of the difference, seeking to understand it, appreciating it. Travelling is searching for the moments, the people, the landscapes. Writing it down is trying to save the moments for longer. The stories you want to tell your grandchildren when you will be old.
The pleasure of traveling – moving – is most often found in the smallest of details. The big splashes are always remembered. But it is the collection of smaller, more intimate moments that often define the memory of a trip!
Enjoy!
