Back on Track!

[Cornelia]

With the rain passed and Joy's paw on the mend, we continued with the next stage; here we are leaving the village of Büren and in the back you can see the rocks, we passed last time:

The famous cherry trees of this area (back right) are not yet in blossom:

Joy is happy to be on tour again even if the walks are stil no more than 2,5 hours (don't look too closely at the dates of the photos; I swapped two bits because of Joy's paw):

She is perfectly content when out and also after a walk at home, she is a very happy girl:

The onset of Spring:

And a tiny bit of colour:

Having a father who taught geography, I learned to read the map at an early age - Joy prefers to follow her nose:

These hills in the back will be the highlight of our next stage:

In Switzerland most of the land is privately owned but you are stil allowed to pass and walk right over the farmers property - sometimes it just says 'Beware of the dog':

Sitting on a windy spot and taking some last photos before heading home again:

"I'm hungry, Mom!" "I'm right with you; play with a stick so long." "I don't want to play with a stick." "You prefer some goodies from my treat-bag, eh?"

The most of the time hidden other photographer:

And the map with the next red dot (and some tiny dots inbetween to show the zig-zag of our walking):

For those who missed part one and two:

A big thank you Cornelia and Joy for those beautiful pictures to cheer up our day, the spring's colour ones are definitively superbe...I really enjoyed the "virtual" crossing of beautiful Switzerland. Watch you wee paw Joy, still a lot to discover, cuddles from me.

So schöne Bilder + Gegend! Die "I am hungry mom!" Kurz-Geschichte ist herzig :-)

Thankyou Cornelia for the wonderful pictures sharing your tour with us.  Joy looks like she is healing well and loving her walks again.  Love the picture of her with stuff all over her tongue( think we have all seen that look a few times with our own IS ).   As always the scenery delights me....and your descriptions of what and where you are make it a mini tour for me.  Kudo's to both of you for the fantastic pictures and love how you snuck the picture of the other photographer in at the end.  Looking forward to the next segment of Joy's tour and hope her paw continues to heal.:).

I hope Joy's paw is recovering!

All the best!
