I want to publicly thank Mike Frame for being the most phenomenal tech support person on the planet. I set up my cell phone for an international plan to access work email and to post to the blog while on our trip. It was all set to be activated for the two weeks for just $16 more. Well it appears that Verizon dropped the ball and I had absolutely no service today. I managed to borrow Mrs. Dempsey’s phone, calling Mike at home. Within twenty minutes Mike solved my international calling problem from Randolph! I asked every Swiss person I saw all day and tried everything I could think of only to realize that I needed to call Mike–our problem solver extraordinnaire! Thank you Mike. This was an important one for the parents of thirty six kids waiting to hear about our safe arrival. You saved the day again Mike, thank you from this whole traveling team >

After traveling since 4:30 am on Friday and touring Switzerland all day today I have to say that the hot shower I just took may be the best thing about Switzerland!

The first day is always the hardest, with touring after a night of travel and everyone running on empty. The hotel is quaint and beautiful in the country. Dinner was good and we are doing bed checks in 35 minutes. Tomorrow is Easter Sunday and we are moving closer to God as we ride the air gondola to the top of Mount Pilatus. Up 7000 feet!

Your children are safe, sticking tight and enthusiastic despite their exhaustion. We had some trouble with cell phone service but I should be able to blog now.

Hope you are all safe at home, Happy Easter from Europe!

Here we are in Switzerland!

The flights went really well and all of our first time travelers did terrific. We are with our tour guide and preparing to see Zurich. No worries, we are all here and well.

One of the best things about going away is realizing how much you love everyone at home. Miss you already but prepared to see all this part of the world has to show us!
