Schlafen im Stroh--Grindewald, Switzerland

In early September, we took to the roads to Switzerland where we spent a long weekend sleeping in the straw. Literally. We went to a working farm where we learned how they make cheese--actually bringing the cows up from the pasture 2 times per day, created art projects with our kids, hiked, and enjoyed the beauty that is Switzerland. It was an amazing weekend as we looked watched climbers hike the peak of the nearby mountain and enjoyed quality time with our family and good friends.  Our accommodations. While we were up at a cheese hut learning how the family makes their cheese, Mya had to use the bathroom. She was rather disappointed to find the bucket. However, this is their toilet. The grandparents live in the hut (complete with a bedroom, kitchenette and toilet) during the summer months while the cows graze on the Alps.
