Wine Murder | Zurich, Switzerland

Jun 27 2008 | Published under Personal,Travel

We had been lugging around a bottle of wine since our time in Italy but found ourselves one corkscrew short of a party (what’s else is new).  However, we did have a little paring knife so I set to work cutting bits of cork away in an effort to dig it out.  Genius!  I was about half an inch in when a pressure vacuum inside the bottle caused the cork to suck itself inward, causing wine to spray everywhere.  The aftermath looked like a scene from a horror movie.  The furthest splatter mark was five feet up the wall on the opposite side of the room. That’ll teach me to play MacGyver!

…and yes, my head really is 500 times larger than my body.

Grindelwald, Switzerland

Jun 26 2008 | Published under Personal,Travel

Our time in Grindelwald was limited to an afternoon, but we could have easily spent days frolicking in the wildflowers and hiking through the Alps. Of course no trip through the Swiss countryside would be complete without a pack of fuzzy little deer. Maybe they were animatronic and this was all just one big Disneyland ride.

Interlaken, Switzerland

Our two-hour scenic train ride from Lausanne to Interlaken included, of all things, being filmed by a Japanese travel TV show. We played ourselves – the happy couple watching the panoramic scenery go by from the comfort of our seats.

Day one in Lausanne.  The train ride from Italy to Switzerland had spectacular views of Lake Maggiore and the hillside vineyards in the Alps.
