Winter is almost upon us, the Swiss had enforced all cars onto their winters tired a couple of weeks earlier. This meant a quick appointment one Tuesday morning to switch tires. As I have occasionally found, English and German didn't overlap between the mechanic and customer, but the mechanic and I did find French to be the most helpful language to converse in.
Once the tires were done, and we could safely drive without being arrested, at least for that misdemeanor, we could take a trip out to one of the winter sport outlets outside of town.
Questions arose, such as, who has the biggest feet? Hayley or Mama?
Further questions, such as, are those the right boots, fastest skis?
After organizing the skiing equipment, we also hit the ice skating rink the following day!
Pepper, like all four legged pets, was banned from the place because they didn't have sufficient barriers all around the rink. Frustratingly, I had to walk her back home while the skating took place. Still 4 miles of walking seemed okay with her for some reason....
