Stephanitag??

In Switzerland (and I don't know how may other countries) the 26th of December is another holiday, called St. Stephens Day. That means everyone has another day off of work and such. So happy Stephanitag!

Tonight we went to my Aunt & Uncle's and ate leftovers from Christmas dinner. Then we were made to watch a movie called Doctor Zhivago. It's a movie set in Russia during the Russian Revolution and it's super long. I didn't particularly enjoy it. We watched it because one of the main characters is named Lara, and my cousin's name is Lara. Also, her friend Lara was named after the Lara in the movie, which is pretty cool. 

Language class day 6

Yesterday we went back to the school and had classes in the morning, then went to a cheese dairy in the afternoon. It was a super cute little dairy, and we got to look in through the glass doors and watch the cheese makers wrestle the giant wheels of cheese. 

The cheese that is made there is excusively Emmentaler cheese, which has to age for a while. This is one of many rooms that look exactly the same.

There was a gift shop, and I thought it was super cool that they had both my name and my mom's spelled correctly on these adorable mugs.

On the way to the Kaserei (cheese making place) we discovered a train car that had a little playground for children. We definitely classify as children, so we went on the slide. We both almost got stuck... This is my friend Laura from Spain...
