I'm trying desperately hard to stay awake due to jet lag...
SO I thought I'd blog-
but blogging on the bed isn't really helping.
I just wanna sleep!
Jet lag + drowsy allergy medicine = trouble.
But I made it to Switzerland and am now with Jon, yay!
The flight over was a little less than fun...
The guy I sat next to (bless his heart) took up his seat and some of mine.
Which caused a rousing game of poke your neighbor while trying to sleep in already too small airplane seating conditions.
I don't think the roast beef we had for dinner agreed with his stomach either... if you know what I mean.
The cabin was sweltering- and every time I ALMOST dozed off, my friend would start snoring.
Needless to say- I don't think either of us slept too well :)
But because of no sleep- I was able to see us catch up to the sun... which was pretty darn cool!
Switzerland is beautiful.
It's unlike any where we've ever been.
I don't what this is... I found it in Jon's pictures.
Maybe he can give a brief description later...
But I think it looks like Aslan's tomb :)
Beautiful scenery on the train...
I finally made it to Monte Verita late last night.
Jon's been here for a couple days now...
In fact- he went on a boat ride yesterday around Lake Langen...
The islands in the middle of the lake have castles on them.
No big deal.
Our view from the hotel overlooks the lake...
This is our hotel with the red shutters...
Sooo- fun fact about Monte Verita (for all of you dance history buffs)...
it's where Rudolf Van Laban set up summer workshops and where Mary Wigman studied dance under Laban!
Ok, ok... so I thought it was cool :)
I went wandering the streets this morning with the wife of Jon's professor.
We had fun getting lost whilst finding allergy medicine for old sniffles here.
I also found this in Jon's picture file... hahaha.
I suppose Jon found this amusing :)
