Ah Switzerland - I love this picture.
Our trip started a little rocky, lots of rain and lots of STAUs. WE live 4 hours from Interlaken, Switzerland, but the drive ended up being 6.5, yikes! We stopped at one point to use the bathroom, but since it cost 1 CHF each and we didn't have change, we decided the parking lot would be better. No wonder their grass is so green!! 
After that stop, Chris decided his pregnant wife should drive while he had a few beers. German beers mind you. Of course we were lacking a bottle opener, but my little ranger managed to make a caribiner work.
3.5 beers later (with whitty conversation) we were in Interlaken!
But just bearly - we needed a little pit stop before finding a camp site.... This picture is odd, but I figured - hey, its my blog right?!
This is the beautiful lake that our camp group was on. Its the view right outside of the Roberts Tent - not bad aye?
This is the lake we stayed by. Eve is presenting it to us. Beautiful!
Our little motor boys..
Nick wanted to show off his much needed fireman rain boots. They were perfect for running around Saturday morning as the grass was rather wet from ALL the rain Friday night. We were thankful to have made it just in time.
Chef Chris started off breakfast on Saturday morning
Next onto the level of accomodations
First - the tent - no kids, wedding present tent. Lindsay and Chris thought it was perfect (except for the first night when they got a little wet)
Second Level, Tent with Kids! The Wisneskis managed to put this on up before too much rain feel Friday night. It has two separate rooms and an entry way. It also stayed water proof Friday night!
Third Option - the pre-assembled tent. This was already put together by Eurocamp. The beds inside even had linens! Not to mention a nice kitchen set up. Go McCulloughs!
The Roberts stayed in another tent like this and as we know, the Leadbetters opted for teh Mobile home again since the late night trip to the potty was not something 36 week pregnant Sara was too excited about. Plus it served as a great place to congregate for breakfast on the chilly mornings.
Saturday we ventured into town and found several beautiful spots. This one had a gondola that would take us to the top (where Chris wanted to hike to a farther up top - Jungefrau...) It appears to have snow on it year round..... Nick was eager to join him - mostly for the gondola ride, but we walked through the town instead.
Lunch time in a random parking lot - with a view of course.
The Roberts put together an excellent lunch - to include yummy sucker lips! Big hit with the munchkins!
Check out those kissers!
Nick loves to sit in the cars - he is starting to wonder why they never seem to work...
Yum, swiss chocolate for the pregnant lady.
The camp ground we perfect for all the kids to run around. This was a little hockey match with Nick and Tate
The nights got a little chilly - at least Farrah thought so. By the end of the night, Macy was wearing 2 hoods and a hat!
S'mores - yummy, sticky, and around charcoal fire - every parents dream!
You never know who you are going to travel with.... Funny that Michigan and Western Michigan were playing eachother in football this weekend. Amy hooked up the 'sling box' and we were able to catch a little game time all the way in Switzerland! Tecknology is amazing. Thankfully the wolverines managed a win too =) I know, I won't get used to that....
This was a super funny shirt that Brian bought for Farrah. I was excited for the oppurtunity to wear it amoung friends. I had to change it before heading out on the town - even though we weren't sure if folks could translate it anyway...
Sunday morning the boys headed to Lauderbrun to do a little exploring
Glasier water is COLD
Guess you don't see this everyday!
I love how this photo turned out - it was taken from our car as we were leaving of Interlaken Lake. The mountains and sail boats are just beautiful. Perfect painting oppurtunity for Barbara!
