Along with chocolate, Switzerland is famous for other milk products - especially cheese. Yesterday, when the weather was nice, Paula, Jennifer and I took a ramble down to Nicole's former house in Gryon and chatted with a goat in the field next door.

On the way home we were lucky enough to come across one of the many cheese farms in the neighborhood. They plant the small cheeses in the spring and now they are almost ready to harvest. Here's a photo of some of the huge "wheels" of cheese still in the field. They'll be brought into aging buildings and by next spring they'll be small, compact, and delicious!
