Bonjour, Gutentag, Ciao

I'm back from my trip to my first trip to Europe and have about 700 pics that I brought back with me. I arrived in Geneva, Switzerland, August 3rd with a backpack on my back and instructions in my hand telling me what trains/buses I should take and where I should transfer. It was a comfortable and scenic trip. 3 hours later I arrived in the ski town of Verbier. Verbier is beautiful. The mountains are steep and lush, and the town is expensive and small. In the summer the only thing to do is hear the Verbier Orchestra or hike. That's it! The orchestra is all there is to do. But apparently in the winter, during ski season, the streets are jam packed! And everything is at an incline. I swear my butt got twice as big from it!
The day after I arrived, Nate had his morning and afternoon free so we went on a little hike.
me doing a power hike! and then me on the face of the mountain. steep!
and a leap for joy

more to come.......

My butt would've gotten twice as small. It's a compliment that you have muscle to build on! :)
