Switzerland

At a castle on Lake Geneva. Switzerland and France are in the background across the lake.

So, Switzerland was great sorry there aren't any pics but I have to use my computer for that. It's like the US in Switzerland except the buildings are about 500-600 years older and they are surrounded by mountains. However, the cities are modern and people work normal hours. It's safe and clean. It would be great to live there. I'm trying to catch up but it isn't easy.

I can now count to 20 in Swiss German and can do some of the simple greetings and responses. It has come in very handy in Paris and Amsterdam. If people ask you if you speak english and you say "no" is Swiss German they immediately leave you alone. They want money or to sell you pot and this gets rid of them fast and then I see them harass other Americans.

My computer time is running low so I need to get going. I promise to post some pics soon and give an update on my trip to Paris. I went to Normandy and the French Open.
