Holly gave a great description of our escapades yesterday. We have fallen behind somewhat I'm afraid but life has been busy! We are settled in our new house and feeling wonderful. We are in a little village outside of Geneva but it is an easy commute into the city. Work is going well for both Dave and I. We are enjoying the complete break from our usual routines. We have managed to scare up bikes for all of the kids.....kind neighbors and colleagues. With luck Dave and I will manage to get our hands on bikes as well since there are wonderful bike trails close by. Last weekend we went hiking in the Jura mountains. They are a smaller mountain range than the Alps, but also lovely. The weather has been unseasonably warm and we are trying to take advantage of it. The drive to Gruyere was spectacular. The blossoms and flowers are everywhere and the fields are that vivid green we see only in spring. There is still the suspicion that it will all end soon and temperatures will fall, but in the meantime we enjoy! I spent three days at a WHO working group meeting finalizing guidelines for hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. It was fascinating to see the inner workings of the WHO and to experience how some of these guidelines actually come to be. Countries from around the world were represented yet it was a small enough group that there was lots of discussion and interaction. It was a wonderful opportunity to meet international colleagues. Back to regular work this week! We tried to post a video of the Bern bears doing crazy things but so far no luck. we'll keep trying. My learning curve is steep with this blogging business!
