20 years ago, after finishing high school, Sutton came to Liestal, Switzerland and lived for a year with the Beeli Frauen (ladies): Host mom, Irene, oldest sister Peppina, middle sister Luisa, and youngest sister Sofia. She had a wonderful year and has kept in touch with them ever since she left, visiting several times. It was one of the first places we wanted to go and visit this year. And it was perfect timing, as there were two new babies in the Beeli family, Marta, Luisa's baby and Leani, Sofia's baby. We spent a lovely four day weekend outside Basel, visiting and chatting and reminiscing and catching up. Sometimes it didn't seem that 20 years had passed by at all. Foster is smitten by his Swiss Grandma and we can't wait to go back.
