SWISS VACASH

switzerland is soooooooo cool!!!!!!
where else do you...
eat all the chococolate you want;
buy fresh milk from a vending machine with cows standing next to you;
go to the swimming pool and stand under a massaging waterfall;
walk around a lake in short and t-shirt because it's warmer than socal even though there's still snow;
ski, fall and UNbreak a leg that had been hurting for 10 days;
go iceskating with a leg that no longer hurts (see above);
play with juliette whenever we both feel like playing (read: not babysit);
plenty of veg and meat (not the potatoe and sausage diet Sabine had apologized for in advance);
not kill my eyes by staring at the computer for hours.
not cook;
not clean;

news strike

As always, I'm on the groundfloor of the my house at 8am to print out the transcript of my favorite french news podcast so I can read it on the train.
I open the website, low and behold, they are on strike!! no easy french news for me today.
I open itunes, and not only is the easy french news not casted today, nor is my african news, middle east news, and world news. (all same station)
crossing my fingers before I reopen itunes to see if other radio stations are on strike too.
