Bye bye Basel

I had a final few days in Basel with the Kackies. It's been a shorter visit to the northern hemisphere this year, but very good. Basel was enjoying a lovely autumn after some dubious summer weather. Still warm and very pleasant. The grapes were ready to harvest and the leaves just beginning to turn.

Vineyard on the Muttenz hills, an easy walk.

 Flynn loves his soccer (orange top)

Benjy has the attitude and saunters along behind the girls on the way to kindy

Wherever I am in the world, there's always swimming lessons. Older brother Flynn third from left, listens to the teacher...

while in the small pool, Benjy rejects the lessons in favour of practising his board skills.

I just had a few days there, then got the train back to Zurich and an overnight flight to Dubai.
