The Adventures of Michelle and Her Mother (Part 2)

As mentioned in my previous blog, Monday my mother, Koryn and I went into Zurich to watch the Böögg burn. It burnt in 12 minutes and 54 seconds! That means a nice summer in Zurich and actually, the weather has been beautiful here.






Tuesday we spent the afternoon in a charming little town in northeast Switzerland called Appenzell. From there, we took a short ride to the tiny town of Stein to visit the cheese factory (Schaukäserei) there. Once we were done looking around, we enjoyed a plate of different types of cheese produced in the factory and I had a beer from the Appenzell region...delicious! Of course we had some adventures during the day, including witnessing a fist fight that was eventually broken up by the police.

Wednesday I took my mother to yoga. It was her first experience with it and not exactly what she was expecting. She thought it was an hour and a half of meditation, not standing on your head and contorting in all sorts of different positions. Needless to say, she was quite sore afterwards and spent the evening in the bath tub :)
