August 1

On August 1 is National Day in Switzerland. On more reason to drink good wine and to enjoy the rockets which were exploding in the sky. My godfather also made a big fire to light up the night and to warm us. To appreciate all this, I moved with my family to our cottage. We had a good evening and I look forward to next year for another beautiful National Day. This year we were lucky, it stopped just for those few days of celebration.
I still have to practise for better pictures at night, so quality is somewhat poor.









Alps

The sun has finally shone in Switzerland and I took my Nikon to enjoy the landscape of the Alps. I also took some pictures of my village, Grimentz.
Today, it's raining but it doesn't matter. Thanks to this I don't need to scoop up the hay, but it's boring to stay here because I don't know what to do, if it rains.
Enjoy the pictures (click on!)
