March 29 - Easter weekend in Lugano

In downtown Lugano they have an Easter market going on until Monday. In the main piazza they had all types of old fashioned activities for the kids. By old fashioned I mean, wooden stilts to play on, big puzzles out of wood, and other types of hands-on things. We enjoyed walking around looking at all the items being sold by the vendors. It was still quite cold today, but it slowly warmed up.

In the afternoon I took a walk by myself, heading north up the main road from our town. I found a path in the woods running along a stream, and then I found another narrow walkway that led to the L’oratorio dei santi Pietro e Paolo (Oratory of Saints Peter and Paul)



. A tiny church that began in the 13th century!

There are always surprises to discover around every corner - that's why I love hiking in Switzerland!
