This past weekend we had the pleasure of attending Henri Braun's 60th birthday party in Dielsdorf, just north of Zurich. You may remember Henri as the father of our Swiss exchange student, Joel Braun, who lived with the Barbours in 1999-2000, and attended Eagle Butte High School.
Henri and his family hosted an absolutely splendid party on Saturday, followed by a leisurely breakfast and a walk to Regensburg (a medieval fortified village) not far away.
It was so great to see all of the Braun family again, and to meet some new members of the family. Our linguistic skills were indeed tested, as the celebration was a combination of Luxembourgish, French, German, Swiss German, and English. I think we all got along well, though, and Henri seemed to enjoy his party.
