Another Day In Switzerland

This is an email I just sent my family about my lastest adventures in Zurich.

Dear All,

I cant beleive tommorow is my last day in switzerland, it has gone by so fast. Today was kinda slow, I went exploring around around zurich with some friends, and we checked out this sweet bag store^, that was housed inside of stacked storage containers. You have to see the pictures to beleive it. Tommorow, we have a far well bar b q, and then the swiss kids are taking us out for our last night on the town. It should be a blast. Im going to miss so much of this place such as miss the foxs, food, chocolate, public transport, lake, chocolate milk, restaurants, cafes, parks, natural beauty, alps, disco tecks, culture, bars, and the constant amazment of the place. On that note......,.not really looking forward to England, it will be nice to see everybody, but after this experience it will just seem boring. On that note, am I visiting UCL or not? I miss all you guys and I hope all is well at home.

See you all soon
Jonny

The best thing about the US embassy in burn......was the cookies

today we went to burn, walked around, when on a terrible tour, and then went to the us embassy. Note: I need to become an ambasador, because you sit in an amzing compound all day and eat cookies. The food there was amazing, and the house was even nicer (pool, bowling ally, and movie theature). Burn on the other hand was nothing special. Tommorow we have a free day, so im going to go explore zurich for the last time on this trip. Miss you guys.

im still craving another cookie from the embassy.......after i had 5

Just a funny tid bit I heard today

"Lovelock Nugget". Sounds like a sick sex act.

A Daily Update

Today we went to an indoor water park and it was so sick. The cobra and the tornado get special shout outs. O, and to the lady with the creepy swimsuit (All I am saying is patch then string and nothing else) in front of us......all i can say is you are so dam euro. Then tonight we went to their school concert (the swiss equivalent of winter pops), and it was amazing. The best high school classical concert i have ever seen, and our hosts attend a business focused school. These euros are crazy. Miss you guys and hope everyone is having as much fun as i am.

The Alps and Other Adventures

Here is a copied message I just sent my girlfiends.......sorry Im tired and didnt feel like writing another post.

Wow, the last time I sent you a message was right before the mystery dinner.....it has felt like ages. The mystery dinner, actually turned out to be a meal in a restaurant that was compleatly dark........yes no body could see a thing. however the concept was really cool, becasue all the waitresses were blind, and it gave you the experience of being blind for a single meal. After the salad, cutlury was almost unuseable, so the majority of resorted to eating with out hands and licking our plates........The next day all of us hung out in zurich and then went to a wine tasting in a cool little bar in old town zurich.......good times were had........The next day we then went on the train up to the alps. The public transportation system is so amazinging here, that a trip from the middle of zurich to a tiny village in the alps only took 2 trains and a cable car ride. However, the weather in the alps was a little foggy.......actually really foggy. So we improvised and had fun in our rooms. This experience was like sleep away camp, but with alcohol. Things peaked when the me and the other 5 people in my room formed a woo tang clan, and even drew a pictzure of ODB (Old Dirty Bastard) That night we went to the village disco tek......and more fun was had. On a side note i found it weird how my dancing and pool game imporved the more i drank. The night culminated with half the bar belting Oasis Dont Look Back In Anger at like 3am. We had to wake up the next mourning at 8am......which was difficult to say the least. Then after a marginal breakfast, we all pile into a cable car and go to the highest place in europe (also the place were Jaws was momentarily killed in a James Bond movie) It was a little foggy, but the view was still amazing. Then after about 10 minutes of taking photos, we all engaged in a ginat snowball fight, around the area were mr. bond and jaws had their epic battle royale.Then we went inside of the revolving cafe up there and had some amazing hot chocolate. You need to see the pictures.......Then we went back down into the village, bought lunch at the coop (the swiss version of safeway), and then took the trains back into zurich. Now im here writing this, eating chocolate, overlooking lake zurich......it was been a long few days. I miss you alot, and talk to you later. :)

Short Update

Updating emails and facebook stuff from a school computer lab in zurich.......so cool.
