While we were in the Philippines, we came to a startling realization: we haven't been accomplishing things on our Bucket List very quickly.  We both worry that *poof* it will be the end of our assignment here and we won't have much to show for it (and empty passports!).   With that thought, we had originally planned to head to Basel, Switzerland for a night the weekend after we got back from the Philippines.  Well, life managed to get in the way, planning was too rushed, and so we decided not to go to Basel at the last minute.  Instead, we caught up on the boring stuff - laundry, cleaning, sleep, that sort of thing.
