Swiss miss
I managed to upload some of the non crappy pix from my little camera onto flickr and made a pretty mosaic of some of my Switzerland trip highlights.
I had a good trip to Europe. I'd not been to Switzerland in many years and my mom's entire family is there. I was teased a bit about being so remiss about visiting, but I shall be certain to return soon. It's a beautiful place, awesome food and so much cheese I wanted to die. Oh yeah, and my family is really great too...
I'd worried a bit about getting a standby flight of of SFO, but it turned out to be fine and we got business class to Europe. That really helps take the sting out of a long flight. That is perhaps the best perk of my job. Domesticly first class is never available, but internationally it is much easier to snag. Of course I pay for this perk with my labor, I mean I was puked on TWICE last month by ADULTS! No joke people. Don't fly when you're sick please...
More later on actual knitting content. I've got a travel project underway you've never even heard about.
What is wrong with people?!
Gorgeous photos, Sil! And thank you. ;^)

I'm glad you were able to make it to Switzerland. How fun is that? And getting to visit family is always good.

Looks like a really nice holiday! I wish I had family in exciting places. I can't believe you got puked on, I think if that happened to me I would throw up immediately myself!

Lovely photos of Switzerland. Is it as expensive as everyone says it is? However, with the mention of cheese, I may take out a bank loan and go and visit!

Lovely photos! Yuck--sorry about the puking. I always get sick after I've been on a plane because I caught it from other sick people.

Sounds and looks like a great vacation (except for the being puked on twice bit).
