This is a picture of the river that goes all the way around Bern. The city were I got my visa!!!!

View of the country side in the mountains close to Tramelan, Switzerland, where the festival we played at was.


Mennonite church in Tramelan were we had all of our meals for the festival. I was also told there are several Beyelers that attend this church and a lot of them in the area. There is also a good number of Schmuckers (not Smucker) there too.




The beautiful Irish countryside. This is called Castlewellan in the background. The trees close up are part of the worlds largest maze. It's shaped like the brain amd takes a few hours to complete.



Entry to a park just outside of Newcastle, Ireland.

Joel, Thanks for the mini tour. It looks like wonderful countryside. What an bonus you got, having to stay in Switzerland. Did you enjoy Thailand?
Harrisonburg area is almost as pretty.
I went to Crossing Creek in the hills, a Recovery farm for persons with Mental Illness. REally a beautiful place.
