Starbucks.....oh, what a treat!Recently, Trace and I had been given an extremely gracious gift from our home church; Jefferson Center Presbyterian Church (JCPC). They had a special collection on our behave, so that we could go and enjoy a savory cup of coffee somewhere and enjoy an evening of dinning out in Switzerland ~ what a real treat! We are so very grateful for such a special and thoughtful gift and thanks to their gift we will be able to enjoy several dinners out (a great time as well to utilize our French language skills)! We THANK YOU all at JCPC with our most grateful hearts!
Another gift that we had received recently was from friends of ours in Switzerland. They had given us as a gift, a train ticket (good for two people) to travel anywhere in Switzerlnad over a 24 hour period. To our friends we THANK YOU so very much ~ you know how much we enjoyed our travels that day! Blessing upon blessing, God has poured out upon us through our family and friends.
So, with this gift and the gift from our home church we decided to travel to Zurich. The travel time by train was about 1 1/2 hours. Okay, I admit Starbucks was our first stop once we arrived in Zurich.....and what a treat! A savory cup of coffee and a slice of lemon loaf....for a moment it felt like home again. For those who don't know me well, at least once a week I would find myself at Starbucks to enjoy a cup of coffee and a slice of lemon loaf while reading either Scripture or a book of choice. On occasion, it was delightful to meet a friend (s), a time to enjoy amongst friends.
Look for our next blog entry......our dinning out in Zurich! WOW was that great!!!
