Cuckoo-Cuckoo

On the way home from Switzerland, we stopped in Triberg for lunch and planned to buy a Cuckoo clock. There are so many different kinds to choose from, it is pretty overwhelming. We ended up going with a woodcutter's house with little red shutters and 3 weights (pine cones)- one each for the Cuckoo, dancing children on the balcony/woodcutter chopping with music (plays a version of the song "Edelweiss"), and the clock. Because the weights are small, we have to reset the clock each week by pulling on opposing chains to bring the weights back up to the house.

The newest addition to our home...a Kuckuck Uhr (Cuckoo Clock) from the Black Forest!
