Lovely photographs, brings back fond memories of our time spent at Sarnelli and seeing all our little friends. Very moving week-end on February the 14th with the inauguration of the Ian and Oscar House, especially happy to see that a small delegation from the Rotary Club of Pully was able to be present.
