Fuller Clan Arrives in St. Moritz, Switzerland

We had an uneventful and very nice plane trip over.  Both little girls were super travelers on the airplane.  We did have one small hiccup,in Paris. Our flight landed late and it was a 30 minute walk to the other terminal for our departing Zurich flight.  Duffy, Mimi and I went a separate route because we were in wheelchairs!  ( not Mimi, just Duffy and me). The others launched on their own!  The problem was, Annette had Trey's passport and boarding pass and he had heard the gate was F28 when in fact it was F 23!  They were closing the doors for the Zurich flight and we didn't have Trey.  Gaby  was crying and saying, "Please don't leave my daddy!"  I finally reached Trey on my cell phone and yelled  "Run!  They're closing the gates!"  Gaby's tears helped and the gate agent took pity on us and didn't close the gates and Trey made the flight by the skin of his teeth!  One suitcase did not make it, but it was delivered today!  

We've arrived to a virtual winter heat wave for Switzerland!  It was 54' today!  All the guys went on a 4 man bob sled run!  It was, (their description), INTENSE! And they all had a great time!  One other hiccup today!  We were taking Duffy outside to watch the bobsled run with the guys when she tripped and fell on a step. She made a 4 inch cut on her shin by scraping off the top layer of her skin!  It bled a lot at first, but a lovely blonde young woman, Anna Lena , came to our rescue and was a super helper! She ran to get the emergency kit and beautifully bandaged her leg until we could get to a clinic. The clinic was super nice and 5 minutes away.  The Dr. ended up putting in 4 loose stitches to try and hold the skin flap

together.  We are to report back to the clinic on Monday.  Though we were given pain killers for her, she doesn't seem to be uncomfortable and hasn't taken any pain killers.  After arriving back at the hotel, we promised Gaby snow play time outside!  So, true to our word, we bundled Gaby in her snow suit, boots and mittens and launched Gaby to her "great snow adventure!"  She and Trey made a friend for "Olaf" ( the Frozen Snowman).  The "older" group is staying in and baby sitting while the younger generation is going "clubbing"!  Below Is a sampling of photos to show how much fun four generations are having!  Tomorrow is our first day at polo matches on the Frozen Lake Moritz!

We're on the way!

The girls were gifted St Bernard stuffed puppies. Both puppies are so loved!  On the bus for the 3 hour drive from Zurich to St. Moritz and Badrutt's Palace Hotel ! 

Good morning!

Two thumbs up!

Anna Lena --- our excellent "emergency medical helper!"  She is an amazing young woman with a great presence of mind!  She was so super helping us.  This is a young woman who goes beyond the norm to help!  She will succeed in her work endeavors because she is willing to "go beyond" what would be expected!  Thank you for your excellent assistance!
