HellooooOooooo all twelve of my faithful VUoooooors! I have arrived in Viterbo (although you couldn't tell by the pictures) and have re-established my connection with the rest of the world through the wonders of technology (which keep crashing by the way). For all of you in Italy not able to check email because you can't figure out where the @ symbol is, I'll tell you. It's in the bottom right corner of the ò key. Yup. Just to the left of where it says ç. But you still can't press it? Nope it's not shift! That's how you get ç. Plus it'd be too easy. If you don't have a couple Gorgian guys to point it out for you, you're pretty much screwed (pardon my french... or whatever).
Anyway, LOOK! SEE! That's my travely buddies standing on top of a dam in the Swiss Alps with a giant green lake behind us! Crazy huh? It's it cooooool? The picture below (fittingly enough) is looking over the side of the dam! We drove up that road (the little dark grey one in the very upper right hand corner of the picture)!
For those of you following along at home, you might be going... "wait... what?" (I had to press "shift" and the "2" key for every single " you see from now on. Appreciate it!) And right you are to go "wait... what?" Those of you not paying particular attention to my travels are probably going "what are they 'wait... whatting' about." Well the fact of the matter is... I have skipped around four days of my adventures in Switzerland. They include traveling up a huge mountain! Finding a huge swiss catapillar (that I couldn't keep) on top of said mountain. Eating dinner during a rainstorm in a barn. Mall shopping and other amazing stuff that you will never hear about! Because... after all. Who really wants a blow by blow account of every day I spend out of the country. (ok fine, I've had computer troubles and managed to not have about four days worth of pictures, so we are skipping ahead to out departure from Switzerland).
ALPS! LOOK AT THEM!
I actually felt bad about taking this picture as there is no way my tiny camera can capture the amount of depth contained in these mountains. There mountains are bigger than it is possible to comprehend. Trust me. You have to visit. Actually there's not really any point in you even looking at the pictures of the mountains. So whatever. I'll complain about this lack of accurately portraying size and depth later in my blog. Probably many times. Get used to it.
Ok Swiss Alps. Imagine switchbacks up and down a thousand more picures, just like the one above and you've got a fairly accurate idea of the Swiss Alps. I'll post more pictures in a bit.
