Life seems to have shifted quite radically this week, as the summer here in Switzerland starts drawing to a close.
A Sunday morning storm reset the temperature to something more autumnal (although these are looking to climb again gradually – we’re not completely done with warm days here, thankfully) and all of my three children started their respective schools again on Monday.
The two youngest are once again in the same institution – they’re in the first and last years of our local “lycée” (the Denis-de-Rougement in Neuchâtel), which is the three years of post-mandatory schooling that often precedes going to university.
Stateside, the eldest had the first few lectures of his bio-medical engineering studies at Johns Hopkins University. The lecture theatres apparently did fill up after these pics were taken. 🙂
So it’s nice and quiet at home, for better or worse. It’s probably for the best, as work-wise things are looking to get busy over the coming weeks, too:…
