Day 2 with the Jarman family we visited Gruyeres, a medieval village that has one street which is only accessible on foot. It was a charming little village complete with it's own castle. We were a little burnt out on castles from the day before, so we just took a quick look and then headed to the local dairy where the famous cheese is made. The dairy also had a restaurant which we stopped in for a lunch of fondu and more rosti, with Gruyere cheese of course!

This isn't a great picture of us, but check out Ruby.She reminds me of...
She was so cold she didn't want any part of her skin exposed.

It is about time! I had been going through some serious goclayton withdrawals! It all looks very fun but I seem to be missing a picture of Pete in his sweet new Red Sox Shirt!
James, I wore the shirt almost every day during break - it was just buried under the layers. In fact, at a gas station in France on our way to Paris I received anti-america comments without ever opening my mouth. It took me a minute but then I realized that the shirt gave me away. At least they weren't Yankees fans.
Thanks again!
Looks cold. And that picture of Ruby with her face all covered is priceless.
