Forgotten Rafting, Florence and Switzerland

Well, the hills are definitely alive this morning. We are in Luzern, Switzterland also known as the most beautiful city in the world. I know ive been saying that a lot, but it is wonderful here. We feel like were walking around in a living postcard.

I apparently forgot to mention that we went white water rafting. Whoops. Way back in Austria we rafted up in the Austrian alps. It was freezing cold...40 degrees. It was a complete blast though and well never forget it.

Florence was a beautiful city. I wish we had more time there but allora, Italian for oh well...no worries. We waited in line for an hour or so to see David...as in the statue. He was amazing and it compeltey takes your breath away when you see him. The rest of the day was spent wandering around the city trying not to buy everything in sight. That evening we had a delicioso dinner up in the Tuscan hills complete with opera singers, accordion players and such.

The drive from Italy to Switzerland yesterday was a disaster. An 8 hour bus ride turned into a 14 hour bus ride...a tunnel we were suppposed to go through collapsed and then there was a car accident so the only road around this huge friggin mountain was blocked off. However there are worse places to be stuck in. We arrived to our hotel and passed out.

Its about 8am here and were about to climb up a mountain. Not literally, but on a cable car thing. Alright, talk to you later.
