June 7 - our time almost coming to a close....

Our last days in Lugano..... we have met with friends for lunch, dinner, aperativos, or for coffee. I need to go on a diet, seriously. This past week has been the longest stretch of decent weather since we arrived, but it is time to go home. With the nice weather I think of so many places I would like to hike, but it's time to clean and pack and also time for us to chill out and enjoy the moments.

Nevertheless, we will have a busy weekend! Tomorrow we will travel to Zug, to play a football game for the juniors that was cancelled in April due to too much snow on the field. Then on Sunday there is a game in Geneva for the seniors. Both of these will be tough games. A lot of traveling before our Monday morning departure. Another reason it was important to relax and chill this week!

Here are a few pictures from this past week.
On one of our walks.... the flowers are so beautiful. These were growing in someone's garden.

While eating dinner on our balcony the other day, I noticed hang gliders floating around Monte Bre. This is the first time I've ever noticed them on a mountain here in Lugano!

The hang gliders were landing in a field just downhill from our house. We went over to watch!

Last Thursday we were given a tour of the TV studio for the Italian canton of Ticino. It is located in Comano, which is the town we lived in for a year, 8 years ago. One of the coaches of the Lugano Lakers works there. Here we are in one of the control rooms. (then I was told not to take pictures).
