Happy (belated) 1st of August!

The 1st of August is the Swiss 4th of July.  Confused?  I guess I should say that the 1st of August is the Swiss National Holiday.  We had Frederic's mom, brother, and brother's partner over for lunch- I made a traditional Swiss meal of tacos.  Well, ok, so that wasn't well thought-out, but still... they were good! 


Frederic's mom brought her violin and played a piece for us.  After investigating the violin a bit, we discovered that it had been made in 1761.  Yeah.  Older than the US, and still plays beautifully.
