Reaching New Heights in Chatel

Yesterday was awesome. Devin, Maureen, this kid Mike and I all took a road trip to Chatel, France (1.5 hours each way) to experience this thing called fantasticable (stupid French name...like DJ Super Cool). The premise: two cables strung 2523 meters or 1.57 miles high between three mountain peeks at the Portes du Soleil ski resort on the border of France and Switzerland. You get harnessed into this contraption and sent soaring at a speed of 100 kilometer/hour or 62.12 mile/hour in this trian...

Phase 2 : De routard à montagnard.

... la première fois que le temps m'apparait aussi complexe: C'est dernier 3 mois et demi m'ont apparu comme étant éternelle, je me sens comme si ça fait déjà 1 ou 2 ans que je voyages et pourtant tout c'est dérouler si vite, si vif, si court, si peu de temps.

Tant d'amis,
tant de jeux.
on ne rit,
qu'avant de se dire adieu.

C'est vraiment une première expérience agréable en tant que vagabond des auberges. Je sais que je ...

... up her foot. Consistent with what I've experienced in Europe thus far, they did not offer her any ice. What is the deal with rationing the ice in this country? You would think it was gold bullion or something.

It took 1.35.42 hours for them to take me back to an exam room. There I met the RN who did not speak any English, but did speak Spanish, so we were able to communicate, but just barely. She was from Columbia ...

Jour 1



J'adore Lausanne. Qu'un beau ville! Je suis arrivé à mon hôtel, <<Ville d'Hôtel>>. Ceci est facilement l'hôtel le plus d'une manière commode localisé j'ai eu ce voyage entier. C'est au centre de la ville, marchant la distance de la plupart des monuments et du nouveau système de métro. J'ai rencontré une fille britannique ici qui voyage pour l'amusement, comme moi. Elle s'appelle Anne. Nous sommes all ...

Bienvenue en Suisse (Welcome to Switzerland)

... control recently has broken down, this was the perfect sign to follow, where I planed to cross the border to Switzerland.

Just arrived in late afternoon to Aosta, I was not only already entered to the italian part of the alps but also to the point of good bye. Here I decided not to spend another night in Italy and crossed the border to my homecountry Switzerland a hour later at Calle del Gran San Bernardo.

Friday


< br>Friday turned out to be a
****** day and the clouds were hanging in the mountains just above
the city buildings, so therefore I knew that sightseeing would be
wasted effort. I got up lazily and went down to the reception to
read the International Herald Tribune and around noon headed downtown
to see what was happening. I did some shopping (it had to be dreary
out for me to do some shopping) and then was getting hungry ...

Skiiers paradise and Jon's nightmare

From there we drove from Switzerland to Chamonix, France. For all you skiers out there, this would be a wicked ski vacation. It’s a true little French ski town and the mountains looks insanely steep. The food is melted cheese, potatoes and bacon. Yes, heart attack in a casserole dish. Yummy. We also had a fun encounter with the Chamonix Gendarmerie... Jon drove up a one way street by mistake. There was construction and it was ...

Turned up in Lausanne Swizerland after some confusion and missplanning. We intended to travel from Venice to Monaco then Barcelona then Paris but money was running out fast, so what better idea than to come to Swizerland and Lake Geneva one of the most pricey countries in Europe, so as a result we could only spend one day here on our low student budget. When we arrived at the station we changed some mone and entered the Tourist ...
