My day went good, I met Philippe, Christine, Amandine, et Quentin although i'm pretty sure i spelled their names wrong. No one in my Famille speaks fluent English, but Amandine understands a little bit and can speak un petit peu aussi (probably a good thing). Fortunatly for me, my host Mere et Soeur are both AMAZING cooks, and it looks like like gourmet Swiss food for me. Demain we are taking a hike through the montagnes, which should be a blast. Well, I would right more but I've been up for14 hours, with only two hours of sleep and another 16 hours of awake time right before it. yeah, I'm REALLY tired, so just know that today went well, and i am looking forward to tomorrow. Note that the Novelty hasn't worn off and it seems like i am looking in on a movie of me doing all of this. The sheer reality that i know is out there just hasn't sunk in yet, and i hope it never does.
PS: my French class didn't really help a whole lot on grammar, and sentence structure, but i can pick out a lot of words from simple sentences, and understand what they are talking about.
Glad you got to Switzerland without any glitches. I went to Bear Lake to see Nana, Mike, Amanda, Sam, Alissa, Alex, Sam's brother and sister. I was exhausted and went to bed early and got your call from Bulle at 5 a.m. my time. Have a wonderful year like I did when I went 36 years ago for the first time. The Swiss are wonderful and you have a knack for languages and will do just fine! Love ya, Dad.
