... after he handed Jesus to be crucified and once he climbed to the top, saw the lake which was in the shape of a cross and realised he'd done something dumb and jumped off the mountain and killed himself...hence the name Mount Pilatus. Interesting myth.....

We only got to catch the lift up to 1500ft cause it was too windy up the top. There was about 10cm of snow where we got to and had ...

... here in Croatia is like a weird social experiment--locking up 40 college students in a hotel in Croatia... yesterday we finally left the resort complex and went into the town of Pula. It's a 40 minute walk or a 15 minute bus ride. I walked there and bussed back. It was a cool town, but kind of annoying to get to. It reminds me of Algeria. There's quite a few roman ruins around, which is really neat. And the main part of the ...

In den letzten zwei Wochen habe ich einiges an neuer Ausrüstung zusammengekauft. Unter anderem ein neues Zelt und warme Winterkleidung.

... but suggested that we didn't buy it today because the weather was supposed to be getting bad so there wouldn't be much of a view...so we decided we'd wait until tomorrow to buy the ticket.

Went to this Thai/Vietnamese place for lunch as they were recommended to us and the prices were reasonable. They were on vacation and today was their first day back and it worked out perfectly. I had the Bun Bo Hue at the Khoua Vientiane Restaurant Take-Away (Kauffmannweg 7, 6003 Luzern - hinter Hotel Astoria). The place is what we would consider as a hole in a wall restaurant but it was busy!!! People kept coming in ...

... a group of policemen guarding the train station from these protesters and completely turned around to avoid them. There was also a lot of activity inside the train station; there was an extreme sports reality kind of competition going on as well as tons of people returning from an ACDC concert of some sort. I really enjoyed the fast-paced vibe of the station. The trip came to a close when we returned to Aigle and rode up the mountain back to our home at Chalet Fougeres J

... a coat... brr... So I change my clothes at the airport and we drink a cup of coffee at Starbucks Coffee... But I'm not here.. no definitely not...

... about brushing your teeth and washing your face in a public toilet) We had heard from two australian girls that the Reinfalle were a beautiful sight, and as they were free we hopped on another train to get to Schaffhausen to have a look. Unortunately it was really misty and so we didnt see all that much, but to tell you the truth the biggest falls in Europe are less impressive than Howick falls! After wondering around the medieval ...
