Mountains! Mountains, Gandalf!
Switzerland is my favourite country so far!
We met up with caketime in Bern (Berne?) which was awesome! Bern is a nice place too, but hanging out with Mia for a day was the coolest :P We checked out the Parliament and the Tiergarten (sp?) Which is basically a small animal park. The deermouse is a very strange little creature. Then we did MOAR STUFF and finally we had dinner and we tried Swiss food, I had Rosti (grated potato...pie) with sausages... wurst? which was deeeelicious. And then it was time to say goodbye. :( Aw. But it was lots of fun, thanks caketime!
After Bern we went on to Lauterbrunnen, where we stayed at Camping Jungfrau holiday Park (or something) which is in "The Valley of 72 Waterfalls" (though I think we could only see about 10, but I guess it is summer or something.), which is absolutely amazing! In a million years when I can upload photos I'll post some, because you really can't describe how great this place was with words. And there were snow-capped Mountains!
We went hiking all around the place, both sides of the valley, and we went up to "The Top of Europe," Jungfraujoch, which is 3,454m above sea level (feet sounds more impressive - 11,333 ft.)
There was lots of snow on the mountain, icy snow. I ate some, and I didn't die or anything. It was delicious. I also made my first snowman. He was heeell badass. Well, he became it when Gavin put his sunglasses on him. Pictures to come! You just have to wait, oh, I don't know, a million years. Man I regret not taking a laptop! Oh well.
LUCERNE WAS NEXT ALLCAPS FOR FAST TYPING
The lion monument is the most moving war memorial I have ever seen, it's really nice. Lucerne is a great town too, it has Medieval Watchtowers and the ramparts and stuff are still intact and it was awesome.
HIGHLAND COWS I FED HIGHLAND COWS, I almost fed a Highland calf but Gavin discovered that my Swiss army knife does indeed conduct electricity, and I kind of yelped and the calf ran away. It was a sad moment.
Lucerne (Luzern?) Also has some really cool Medieval bridges which run over the super fast flowing river.
Does anyone know what date unit results are being released? I really want mine. :(
How are things with everyone anyway?
