I did
have another great sleep last night. Now
that Laure is around the nights aren’t as late as they used to be in the
S. house – and my love of early nights quite likes this fact!
M.
S. drove my car, with me as a passenger, to get gas because I really didn’t
want to drive it more than I had to! It’s
those little stops that I have the hardest time with still!
We
played Scrabble…In French. And I am just
as horrible at it in French as I am in English!
It was fun, however! Sophie is so
much “older” than she used to be! J
I left
around 1pm, right after lunch. It was so
sad. I hate leaving – especially not
knowing when I’ll get to see everyone again!
I am so glad that I went to visit, however! It was totally worth learning standard
for. Lol.
The
drive home was quite successful. My one “story”
of the drive was that I pulled into a rest stop in Switzerland somewhere (thus
breaking my no stopping rule) because I really had to go to the washroom…unfortunately
you had to pay to pee (which I know, but in my urgency, I forgot!). I had no Swiss Francs in order to pee, so had
to get over that…but when I went to go back up my car out of my parking stall I
couldn’t shift into reverse! I felt like
an idiot. But I hadn’t backed up in this
car yet! After swearing – a lot – I finally
decided the only option was to suck it up and ask the gas station attendant for
help! He couldn’t leave behind the
counter, so a customer helped me – and I have to pull up the thing on the
shifter in order to shift into reverse!
Well, what do you know?! Gotta
love the learning…
I made
it back to the car rental location at the airport with no surprises and slowly
made my way back to the house…bus…tram…walk…it was a late night, but it was an
excellent day! And I think I appreciated
the amazing mountain views a little more this time than I did on the way
there!!
