switzerland, pt 1

March 10, 2009

Here are the first pictures from Switzerland. O and i took a train ride around Lac Leman on Sunday, and ended up at Castle Chillion (otherwise known as ashley’s first castle). It was awesome-moat, dungeon, everything you could wish for in a structure built in the 12th century. We stayed too late, so they started turning out the lights on us, and it turned into the Escape from Castle Chillon (which, tons of steep-ass stairs + rooms built for people not over 5 feet tall + if any place is haunted, it’s this place= adventure).

Anyhow, here’s the first batch of pictures. More later!

The French Alps are amazing/gorgeous.

O's said something that offended my honor. i think i'm being used to hide an offending bit of not-perfectly-picturesque scenery.

O finally lets me get a pic of her.

    Beautiful! Breath taking! Did you stop in the colonnade, go on in sunlight, and drink coffee and talk for an hour? Because that’s just the breathtaking image I think of :)
