For their Easter vacation, the foursome, the Beatles, and Bridget decided to visit Southampton. As they packed their bags, Bridget saw the Geordie twins sitting on the dipan, sofa looking quite sad. She asked them, "Are anda all right, mates? What seems to be the problem?" With a heavy sigh, Scruffy replied, "Well, Bridget, today marks ten years since our parents were killed in a car accident. They got hit oleh a drunk driver on the way back to our house." Bridget remarked, "Oh, dear! That's horrible!" Buzzy replied as a tear streamed down his eye, "It is, indeed. We still miss them terribly." He then fell into Scruffy's arms and broke down sobbing. Bridget could only give them both a comforting hug. She said, "I'm so sorry for your loss." Ringo added, "We're sorry, too." Scruffy replied, "Thank you, my friends. Don't worry, I'm sure we're going to be fine." Rosie said, "I know anda will be. Anyways, this vacation will help cheer anda both up." Nicholas added, "That's right, love. We're going to have another lovely time together." Paul interjected, "I completely agree. Since we'll be bringing our instruments, we can also have a mini konser oleh the seaside!" Rosie replied, "Capital idea there, Paul! We'd cinta that!" Paul smiled and winked in response. Buzzy wiped his tears and remarked, "Oh, that's wonderful! Thanks for all the encouraging words, mates. My brother and I really appreciate them." Scruffy nodded in agreement. Nicholas replied, "You're welcome. That's what friends are for." "Definitely!" Chirped Bridget. After everyone finished packing, they went out to eat lunch and have a walk around the neighborhood. Once they returned to the dorm, they got ready to sleep so they will be fully rested for tomorrow morning's journey.

After studying the mini booklet the past night, my mother and I decided to ride the tram bus going back to Vevey. We showed the visitor card to the driver, who then allowed us to take our seats. It was a relaxing ride. When we arrived, we went to a small shopping center to eat lunch. We also explored the department store and supermarket, where we bought some take-out food, cokelat bars, and juice. After the mall closed for the day, we went around the neighborhood for a couple of hours before going back to the hotel. My father returned from his work and asked how our hari was. We told him that we had lots of fun together, to which he responded, "I am very happy to know that anda are enjoying the place." Soon, it was time to go to bed. Before I slept, my mother told me that we will be visiting Montreux tomorrow.

Today is the start of our first trip to Switzerland and our very first trip to the continent of Europe. Everything is all set. We have our passports with the visas ready, our hotel has been booked, and we have arranged for a car service to take us to the airport. I was very excited for this trip. Our flight path includes a stopover in Singapore, since there are no direct flights going to Switzerland from the Philippines. The airline that we rode is Singapore Airlines. When we touched down in Singapore, we had to stay there overnight as the flight going to Zurich is on the selanjutnya day. We stayed in a cheap, low quality hotel called Grand Chancellor, which is located in the Little India district. After checking in, we ate makan malam outside and did some shopping in a nearby mall. We got ready to sleep right away once we got back to our room, as we had to wake up early for the flight tomorrow...
