Switzerland is..... WOW....

The view from the Living Room


       Switzerland is beautiful. Let me tell you I am extremely spoiled here as well. Ruben and his family are great and are treateing me extremely well. I cannot begin to say how greatful I am for it.






Old School Airport Firefighting
         Since I have been here I have done nothing but relax. It is extremely beautiful and peaceful. I have gone down to the lake to just stare at the scenery and have toured alot of the old town. It is nearly impossible for me to describe what I am seeing but it is as if my surroundings have sprung out of a fairy tale book. The grass is even a different shade of green! It is Brilliant! The other day I went to school with Ruben. I attended two english classes and it is alot of fun to see the other side of a coin. The formal manner everyone was speaking in gave me alot of cheap laughs. The two girls next to me even cheated of the worksheets I had to fill out. Other than that I have also been playing with the local football (American football) team called the Mid-land bouncers. It is really cool to see how they play and in some aspects they are a little more intense than highschool ball. I am also going to be playing with them on Monday in a more rough practice (Yes I will watch the ankle!).

Getting ready for the flight simulator
         Last night Ruben and I went out to a few clubs and I am sad to say I was disappointed. At one point I even counted 18-4 guy girl ratio. We fixed and concluded the night by winning a bit of money at the casino. I am going out again tonight after Ruben finishes Hockey and I hope to have a bit more fun. Today Rubens Dad took us to a Technical mueseum in Lucern and it was by far one of the best useums I have been to. Besides all of the real trains and airplanes that it had they had an F-5e Tiger jet simulator, the ones that cost just over a million dollars. I have never had so much fun at a museum. it was amazing. We also got to be crash test dummies in a car going about 20km an hour. It was nothing too major but still got your heart beating quite a bit.


That is all for now. I will post again in a bit- absolutely before I reach Germany.

Thanks for reading!
