The Family has Arrived!!!

4th of July finally came and we were very excited to have Jason's siblings coming to visit us. We decided to go up to Zurich early and walk around the down town area. It was a nice day but that sun was hot. We headed over to the airport early and Jason had some Starbucks coffee.
The airplane landed 15 minutes early and they didn't have any trouble. In the following picture, Uncle Jason explained to Isabella and Francisco about the trains and standing behind the line. Those trains go really fast thru the depot.
We had quite a few laughs at the airport. There was 14 of us, 1 dog and tons of luggage. When we arrived in Neuchatel, I had to get a picture of us walking down the main street in the rain!
Katelyn was thrilled to get a matching Hello Kitty outfit that was the same as her cousin Isabella.
Sunday morning, we set out to explore Neuchatel.
It has been pretty humid since they have been here and the high has been around 78 degrees. They haven't been able to see the Alps because of the haze.
Pasquinel had fun comparing himself to a Smart car.
Today, we did the toboggan run. I think the big kids had as much fun as the little kids!
We had some incidents. Poor Francisco got a good burn on his hand. Devin got stung by a bee 4 times on his back and hand. Kecia got thrown off the toboggan. They all kept on going for another ride.
I think everyone is caught up on sleep or they may just keep taking those afternoon naps. We shall see what tomorrow brings. We are heading to Italy. Ciao!
