But, as I said, I was a little bit down as I knew we were leaving ...

So I left most of the exploring to Giuliette and kept closer to Mom ...

I had a last look at the beautiful landscape ...

even if you can't see them the mountains are right there in the distance, covered by fog, but still there ...

the Mont Blanc and the Jura ...

Our wonderful walk continued and we got to this green house full of beautiful flowers heart

I reckon the Swiss have to be really lovely people to keep their flowers nice and warm in this climate ...

Incidentally, I also passed a pig farm when Mom was driving us to Isabelle's house and I have to say they looked really, really happy and cosy ...

and a little rest ...

Giuliette was a little puzzled as to why I was having a rest as I haven't had many during our previous walks ...

But still, I am a bit sad today ...
