Made it to Switzerland!

Where do I begin... Well first off Switzerland is gorgeous! The best day I've had on this trip would have to be yesterday. A bunch of us went to the lake and swam and had grape throwing competitions and found a LEECH! We named it Carmen Eleechra. Last night saw the first film of the film festival: Fellini's Amarcord. It was in Italian but had French subtitles that I could mostly follow. The actress from that film, Magali Noel was there presenting the film, she's still as much as a fox as she was then! After the film ended Meredith and I went to the Retunda-spelling?, a huge tent filled with food, drinks, dancing, etc. We danced on stage by ourselves to Usher, Pussycat Dolls, etc. clearly being Americans... Today went and saw an Indian film called Neecha Nagar, I liked it because the music was all done by Ravi Shankar who I adore because he taught my boyfriend George Harrison from The Beatles how to play the Sitar. :] haha. I'm obsessed.. Anywho, later tonight is the showing of Super8 that I'm looking forward to. I can't decide if I enjoy Berlin or Switzerland more. They each have such a different vibe. Berlin more fast-paced, Locarno more relaxed. I do miss the cheapness of food and such in Berlin though that is for sure. A little FF(fun fact) before I leave you guys..the beer here costs less than a bottle of water!!
Ciao!
