Halloween! As you might now, I wasn't looking forward to it at all because I love Halloween. Something Switzerland just doesn't see. But, as it turned out, two Albany buddies couldn't celebrate so, I was a bit happier. Not very nice but, oh well. AND my Halloween was so great. So, I went to school blah blah blah...went home at twelve and was not looking forward to going to German class (I learn nothing) and such. So, my host mommy said I could skip school for the rest of the day. Didn't even complain or anything. So, I sat and looked at books I'd love to read then, we left for Adelboden at around four and picked up my awesome Gotti (Aunt) and we were off for a girls only weekend. We get there and....SNOW. SO MUCH SNOW. It was wonderful. The hotel itself is modern. Very Astridy. With teasing pumpkins on a table and a shelf with good English and French books. I picked out 'Rocket Boy.' I'm really sad, however, because I've wanted to read this book for some time and, since I've only read one hundred pages and I have less than a day left, I'll leave this hotel with only half of the true story in my head. Anyways, I'm curently residing in a four star hotel. In our room, there's a loft which is where Catherine and I sleep. It's so awesome! Later that night, we went for yummmmmy expensive Tai food then, of course, to the swimming pools. Like everything else, super fancy and top noch with a modern waterfall residing next to the indoor pool and, of course it's a 'Never Ending Pool.' The outdoor pool is of course our favorite. It's well heated and oh yea. And amazing view (I'll post pictures) of the snowy mountains and town below us. We were the only ones in it so, we had our fun. At night we jumped out into the cold air, layed in snow (with only a wet bathing suit for warmth), then rushed back into the pool with heat pain. We also threw snow at each other in the pool. I'm not sure if the hotel would appreciate that. SAUNA. Something every fancy hotel has. And oh man. This was one intense sauna. There were all these steps you had to complete before entering the 'Finish Sauna.' Which, of course, is the best. So, there we were at ten. Lying in our birthday suits gaving up at the small star-like lights that faded into other colors. It was so relxing. Despite our intense vacationing, we did not forget halloween. Following my path, Catherine stole a small pumpkin from the lobby and, we rented two scary movies. 'Halloween' and 'The Shining' (naturally). Halloween....was not so great. We mostly laughed. That night I had a dream that was definitely influenced by that movie.
Halloween Story Over.
I'm having so much fun :)
