April - May 2007 Springtime in Switzerland

This Spring has been absolutely gorgeous. The flowers are in full bloom along the lake and pastures and vineyards couldn't be more green. We've done lots of biking trips -- especially up to Lac de Joux. Rob rides the 60K up and down the mountain pass and I meet him at the lake where Rob pulls the girls and I follow him. (It evens us out!)
