Findings: Kaleo's studio, Lido, bike trailers
Food: Salad with beets, never eaten roast, fennel with cheese
To get most places, we walked down the hill past our neighbors: a new calf and her protective mom.
Our first mode of transportation was usually the Rotsee ferry. This ferry is a small wooden motor boat. To call it you ring a bell. The boat operator is in a house on the other side of the lake. The scene at the dock and on the ride across the lake is idyllic: calm water, flowering lily pads, water birds, and sun-bleached wood.
On this day we were headed to Lido beach. Kaleo's studio was on the way so we stopped in for a visit.
After our visit to the studio we walked, bussed and ferried across Lake Lucerne. It was one of the hotter days of the summer so even on a Wednesday the beach and water were packed. One notable aspect of Lucerne is that public spaces are like country clubs. Another notable aspect of Lucerne is that you leave your wallet out on a towel for two hours and it's there when you return.
We ferried and biked back to the farm where Kaleo prepared another amazing dinner. We ate salad with beets and feta and fennel braised in chicken stock along with some other fresh sides.
We were all tired from a day of trekking around in the sun and the dinner was the perfect refreshment. Kaleo also cooked a roast for the next day and the aroma wafted in while we all sat at the large dining table. I couldn't wait for tomorrow.
