Swiss Temple


Hello all!
I am writing from Yans computer….and the key board is Swiss so it is very difficult to type on it. Here is what a sentence looks like on a swiss keyboard if i were trying to write like i were on an american—

Swityerland is so beautiful, everzone here speaks german, a little french, and ENGLISH+ Hooraz.

In german you use the z more than the y so they switched places on the keyboard. Ha ha.

A few quick things – today we visited the swiss temple. I loved it! It.s the only one in the area for a while, so it.s pretty multicultural and everzthing in the temple is in italian.
Yans father has been the temple grounds keeper/landscaper since before yan was born, and lance and i had teh priveledge of visiting their family for lunch in their home. (the way they do that her eis the groundskeeper lives nearby and is paid salary) Can i tell you his mom is an amazing cook? I loved being in their home, the spirit of their house was so warm and inviting… they all spoke french german and english and throughout the meal they naturally changed languages from sentence to sentence. It was pretty cool. (and i really liked yans sister. So adorable!)
Overall today was less fast paced than yesterday, which was welcomed because we forced ourselves to wake up at 8 am to try and fight our jet lag.
Tomorrow were heading to the actual swiss alps by train (2 hr trip. Yikes!) so im sure those pictures and the experience will be amazing.
Sorry for the lack of pictures… ill upload as soon as i can.
Love yall
ashley
