March 5, 2014 - Shopping and enjoying the sunshine!!!

My first panoramic photo from my iPhone. This is the view from our apartment. Straight ahead you see the orange construction fence - thus the jackhammering all day long. :-(  (you can click on the picture to enlarge it)

 This morning was a trip to IKEA to pick up a few things we need. What a great day today! It was mild and sunny, and oh, so beautiful with the sunshine on the snowcapped mountains. We are really appreciating the view, since the snow will melt soon and it becomes a totally different look. 

On the way back from IKEA we picked up some sandwiches at our favorite shop in Lugano - Gabbani's. We ate them along the lakefront.

This evening we met the team and coaches down by the stadium where they boarded a bus for their long weekend trip to Cervia, Italy, where they will practice. After such a nice day, boy, once that sun goes behind the mountains, it seems like a cold wind rushes down the valley along the river - brrrrr! 
Rick eating his lunch along Lake Lugano!
The spot where we had lunch by the lake. It's a shame the snow on the mountains blends into even the blue sky. Straight above my head between those mountains are further snowcapped ones
Enjoying the sunshine on the balcony!
A double decker bus for the trip to Cervia, Italy! But it is definitely NOT a romantic tour!
