It's ~12:30PM.. I'm expecting the doorbell to ring any moment now. My friend Amy and her family are stopping by for a few hours enroute to Fiesch. We're having a simple Indian meal at home & she's bringing the desserts over from Paris... mmmm.. yummy.. can hardly wait for those. The doorbell rings and Amy's two little girls, as cute as butterflies, are smiling at us with sunglasses on their noses & dessert bags in their hands! I'm meeting them for the first time and they start chattering away in French.. Too bad, i didn't do due diligence during my visits to Paris... i can barely get past the customary 5 words. So great to see you again Amy :)

Clara and Chloé happily talk to the cats in French who seem to understand the kids more than i do. Our cats are multilingual -- they understand Swiss-German, German, English, Hindi and now French.. or perhaps they only understand the language of the Heart!

Over dessert & Coffee, we discuss the idea of opening a French bakery here. The Pastries and Macaroons are simply divine.. I could finish all of them right here, right now  Why can't the Swiss learn the art of dessert making from the French?? Guess we need to travel to Paris soon..

Later, a short drive to the meadow @ Sassi.. Amy & Seb enjoy the view whilst the girls delight themselves running around barefoot on the grass, picking flowers & following Butterflies. The air is filled with cries of  "Papillons" "Papillons".. and the blanket with flower-bouquets which shortly thereafter end up behind my and Lukas's ears  They're happy to jump up into Uncle Lukas's lap, much more comfortable than the bench or the blanket..

Soon it's time to bid goodbye. Clara and Chloé jump up to hug & kiss us. Amy and I decide to meet again soon.. either here or in Paris. Thank you Amy & Seb for the visit. Such a Joy to meet kids who are still Pure, unburdened by the political correctness of us Adults and just themselves..
