Last Friday was a great day for us. We met our friend Sue from New Zealand at the Swiss/French border and she took us shopping in Saint Louis. Sue lives very close to the border and usually does her shopping in France. It was a beautiful day with the sun shining brilliantly. We were very aware of "whatever we bought we had to carry home"!! Then we went to Sue's place for lunch and a lovely long chat.
We caught the 2.50pm train home to Schopfheim, put away the shopping, changed and then did a quick turn around back on the train into Basel. We were having dinner with our friends Bernhard and Lorraine and then hitting the streets of Basel for the annual Jazz Festival.
What a night! So many people, so many bands. AND ALL FREE. A real treat. We just soaked up the atmosphere. A highlight for all of us was a choir in a Church that sang for around 1 hour. We were all hooked! Shame Rog and I had to catch the train at 11.55pm as the entertainment continued until 1am.
Hummmm!!! No guessing how we felt on Saturday.
