London Pictures

with the flower I made for the Princess Di memorial who knew a city like London would have so much green lounging space?

double decker buses!
I wonder who will win...
it was hard to get close to any memorials with all the blockades...
the cyclists got really close!

fire extinguisher fiasco

Some friends at the dorm went a little crazy late on Friday night with the fire extinguisher and covered our floor (and some of the other floors in the building) with white powder! It was like an inch of snow had fallen :D


It took the poor guys most of the next 24 hours to clean it up..

Sunday afternoon

Hanging out at a cafe in town...

Cool old-fashioned locomotive :)

I went windsurfing on the lake! Water was 12 deg. Celsius = 53 deg. F. But I had a wetsuit and didn't get too cold.

St. Moritz

St. Moritz is a very classy, expensive resort town--we saw a lot of really nice (think 007) cars while we were there. Unfortunately , the town was pretty empty and most of the stores were closed, as the summer season doesn't begin until July.

drive to St. Moritz

On the drive... there was snow on the ground!

Quite an isolated house (look hard, you'll see it)

mountain...

more pics from St. Moritz coming soon!

Tschau!
