I made it to Switzerland without issue. The train ride
was a novel experience - quiet and comfortable. I'm
struck by how tolerant people are of dogs around here.
I've seen them on the streets and the metro, of
course, but also in hotels and restaurants. I mention
it because a woman sitting across from me on the train
had a small dog with her as well.
The train dropped me off in a town called Lausanne,
and then it was about a twenty minute taxi ride to
Crissier, where I'll be staying and working for the
next few days. Lausanne seemed like it had lots of
shops and restaurants, but there really isn't much to
do in Crissier. I spent yesterday walking around the
area, but it's a typical small city - car dealerships,
malls, houses, etc. Being sunday, all the malls and
stores were closed.
Tragedy struck on Saturday night, though. The charger
for my laptop up and died on me. *Hopefully* I can
find a new one from one of the stores around here.
It's going to be a long and difficult week if I
cannot.
I'm running off battery for now, so will keep this
short.
