Bike Trip

Even though it is already a while back, I still have to write about this special week-end. It was the first father-son date, a Wild at Heart event, important for Niklas' development and his identification as a man :)
Niklas always wanted to go on a bike trip. So we loaded up everything for a 2-day excursion and drove for about an hour to the next camping ground. There, we pitched our little tent, swam in the pool, and jumped on whatever you call those inflatable things kids can jump on. Then, we ate our packed supper and went to sleep in our sleeping bags.
The weather didn't play along all that well the next day. We woke to rain, packed up a wet tent, forgot to take a picture from us camping, but made it home almost dry.
Niklas' comment: He didn't really like the biking. An hour one way was too much. Well, he would probably have preferred to take the car – Canadian as he is :)

Ready for Departure

Prairie School of Mission Aviation at MAF Switzerland Event

Today we participated at an yearly event of MAF Switzerland. Not only did we have a presentation of our years in Three Hills, Canada, but we also had the chance to advertise Prairie's flying programm. There was quite a bit of interest and we hope that one or two of those will find the way to PSMA.

Summer tobogganing

While away in Canada Switzerland developed some new ideas on how to attract tourist. One of the things that became very popular is summer tobogganing. So, we became tourists for a day, tried it – and loved it.

Work Contract Extension

Again I got an extension on my work contract with NeoVac. Now I can work until the end of December 2010. However, I will only work four days a week in order to spend more time with Niklas and Joelle. Additionally, we'll soon need time to prepare our assignment for PNG.
