In a picture-perfect setting 🥰😄....

Dinner on the last evening of a 3 wk gifted vacation in a little *Swiss Village at friend's house of my aunt and uncle!

*it originated in Switzerland's Alps, but quickly spread to the Italian Alps.

My relatives lived on the opposite western side by the Jura Mts. We could see The Alps in the distance!
