More Switzerland Firsts

Jan and I arrived back Switzerland this week.  My mom is recovering well but it was hard to leave her.  Please keep her recovery in your thoughts and prayers.    
Things just keep rolling though... my friend Liv is here to visit for a week and a half.  Today we took her up the Pilatus mountain in Luzern.  We took the ship, the steepest train in the world (at one point it was at a 48% grade!) and the gondola.  We had a blast and got to see so much of God's created beauty.  On top of the Pilatus we also heard the alp horn and yodelers for the first time!  The setting could not have gotten any better.  
Here are some pictures....

Glad you got there safe, Em. It was good to see you guys, even if it was only for a few minutes. Liv - we are a little jealous you get to be visit. It looks just beautiful. The pics and the description is something right out of the Sound of Music!
