Alpexpo Ugerel Hotel Grenoble

... I should've capitalised however in hindsight on the opportunity to sleep but my new 5 min friends, two brothers on there annual ski trip were proving great conversation and those who know know I hate to talk..... The hair doo's for Ryanair resemble bagals and amazed us so our boyish immaturity prevailed and we continued to annoy the hosties. Our service was redeemed only after we explained the fascination with their breakfast hair buns. I did find it funny again the ...

... on going to Paris, but if Kristina and Mary come up with a better idea, we just may do that instead. I will be home Saturday the 18th for sure, because that night I will be going to Lyon to see Banane Metalik. So much psychobilly, I think my head may explode. Updates and pictures after I return.

... voor een stuk van 2 km. We komen het centrum binenn en we zien een bordje staan 'Stade des Alpes (onze eindbestemming) suivre P+R'. We volgen dit bord en komen op een grote parking aan die al helemaal volzet was vanwege de kermis. Terugdraaien ging echter niet...we wisten eigenlijk ook helemaal niet waar we moesten zijn (we hadden de GPS niet opgezet)..na heel wat zoeken....................komen we terug uit aan het begin van die verdomde file waar we net uitwaren!!!!!!!!!! Frustratie ...

Today, I have been on this planet 22 years. I cannot believe that this past year has flown by so fast. This is particularly strange after having Megan here last week. We met three weeks into freshman year, so we have been friends almost my whole college career. It was so bizarre to find ourselves discussing our upcoming graduation and our post-degree plans. In two months I will no longer be an undergraduate but the holder of Bachelor's of Arts....WTF.

... exhausting especially while going up. They waited for me quite often (thank you!) but told me they were impressed with my endurance. That definitely made me happy considering Nepal is less than a month away! We did what is called "La Moliere". It is the summit of a mountain (yeah, we surely didn't ski flat at all today) and the scenery is awesome. I love alpine skiing, but I have to admit cross country skiing ...

... De woorden Stella, Jupiler, Duvel, Leffe en Hoegaarden hebben we ook geregeld horen vallen. Hier in Montélimar is het trouwens allemaal Heiniken. In de Géant (supermarkt) kost een bak Stella 9, 34 euro, zonder statiegeld. Het is wel zoeken naar een bak Stella, want de hele biergang wordt ingenomen door Heiniken. Een schande! Ma bon, we kropen dus op de bus voor een rit van anderhalf uur. In Grénoble werden we afgezet aan een skilift, die ons een heel stukje ...

... went out to dinner. Here is a short history lesson for all those interested: the Bastille (which is French for "fortress") was originally built to keep an eye on the border in order to keep the Italians out. Nowadays underneath the Bastille is Grenoble's Little Italy. Ironic, eh? We found a pizzarea for dinner. I ordered a Bianca pizza which sounded safe but much to my dismay I discovered that I needed to learn the French word for prosciutto ...

... demandes "personnelles", et les demandes "politiques". La réunion en tant que telle reprenait très exactement le même concept. C'est à dire que chacun annonçait à tour de rôle ses nouvelles ("on a fait une occup' de la réu' à Minatec, c'était trop bien"), ses besoins du moment ("quelqu'un connait un journaliste pas trop con au Dauphiné ?", "on aurait besoin de 3 persones pour tracter demain midi, y'a une rencontre de l'UNEF...", "ben nous on cherche toujours une toile bleue, si on ...

Rendez vous danas popodne u Grenobleu. svaka dolazi sa svoje strane svijeta. Maja preko Ljubljane i Udina i Verone i Milana i Torina pa onda kroz onaj dugi tunel. Mnogo ljudi u busu. Malo sna. Nina iz Orleansa. Dva dana razgovora i knjiznica. Jedna slika Notre Dame iz daleka. Sutra smo jos ovdje, zele da se penjemo na neku planinu. Maju su vec popeli nakon rucka ...

... be running at a "Conversational" pace, which is slightly open to interpretation especially when your running up mountains and most people walking up are too out of breath to talk but anyway... I started to get a wee bit worried about the laboured breathing behind me as Damien struggled after about 15 minutes especially when had a fairly harsh reminder that mountains shouldn't be messed with when we rounded a corner and found a women collapsed seemingly from over-exertion with a ...
