In Bratislava
Glenn and I arrived in Bratislava earlier this afternoon after spending more time in Switzerland earlier in the week and then going to Vienna.
After leaving Lausanne in Switzerland, we took the train to Interlaken, in the centre of the country. Laura and I visited the area when we were traveling in April, but it is quite a bit different at this time of year. We spent a whole day trying to climb to the top of the Schilthorn, but were forced to abandon our ascent about 500 metres vertically from the top when a thunderstorm rolled in. We took an alternate route and were able to reach the top later in the day by cable car. However, after two days of hiking in the Swiss alps and biking in England last week our legs were, as you might imagine, very tired.
We will be spending the next three days in Slovakia and the Czech Republic before heading back to England. We will post pictures from there, once we get to a computer with a proper North American keyboard. Auf weidersehn!

…flying to Rome with the whole famn damily (Mark too!) on August 21st. Can you stand another day in Italy? Or perhaps I can hop a quick one to London. We’ll see. Call me. In Windsor (duh). And to everyone one else still reading this, PICK UP A PHONE AND CALL AN OLD FRIEND FROM YOUR HOMETOWN. Tonight. Or just pick up the phone and remind Doug not to forget the Windsorites:-)
