Riding the bus

Nathan’s integration into Kindergarten is complete - he gets to ride the bus!  As of this morning, they have added us to the bus route for school.  We walk to the end of our street, through a little pedestrian gate (that thankfully the stroller fits through!) and down the opposite street to the bus stop.  It’s about a 5 minute walk, and the pickup and dropoff are at 8:05 and 4:20 (16:20), respectively.  There are no busses at midday, so I’ll still pick Alex up on Tues, Wed, Thurs at 12:15, but it helps SO much to not have to pack everyone up and drive to school every morning and afternoon!

As soon as the bus door opened this morning, a little girl in the back yelled “Nathan is on our bus now!!!”  It was very cute, and Nathan likes having someone from his class on the bus with him.

I stayed home with Alex and Matthew until 1:30 waiting for the cable box to be delivered…but it still hasn’t come.  Argh.  We finally gave up and went for  walk down to the Old City.  It was a beautiful day, so we walked for a while, got some groceries at Migros (the other grocery store), stopped at a playground for a little while, and then came back home to get the groceries unloaded (and Matthew’s diaper changed) before going down to meet Nathan at the bus stop.  Tomorrow is a Luzern bank holiday, so none of the stores in Luzern will be open, so I had to make sure to get dinner for tonight and tomorrow night!
