One Year Ago...the best trip ever!



Hard to believe that our Christmas trip to see Jenny and John Niekrasz in Edinburgh (with a side trip to Switzerland) was only a year ago. (They are pictured below in moustaches–a photo we all have displayed in our homes). We had the best time catching up with them a few weeks ago, and they brought us the wonderful gift of a framed set of photos from one of our many nights of hanging out at their home with great cheese, wine and Scotch (and, for a while, Susan and Damian). Both Mustafa and I are delighted (!!) that Maya will grow up with baby Niekrasz, due only 10 weeks after Maya’s arrival!

I’m including photos of us in Lucerne, Switzerland, one of our all-time favorite cities (top)–absolutely magical. This is Mustafa at the top of the Swiss Alps, probably one of his favorite days ever. 

We all put on fake moustaches for no good reason while driving through Southern Scotland on our last day with Jenny and John…

… and then stopped for a more (ahem) grown-up shot.

Without a doubt, the most fun, relaxing trip ever.
