A Day of Recovery

Day: 2

I was wide awake at 7:30am this morning, still exhausted, but I couldn’t sleep, especially with the glorious Alps sitting outside my window. I got up, went downstairs and realized that I still didn’t have any food. So I headed down to the market to stock up on some eggs, cheese and bread for breakfast.

I decided not to jump right on my snowboard the first day but spend the day just taking it easy, doing a little food shopping, and finally finish recovering from my last 2 weeks of non-stop parties/jet-lag.

Spent the afternoon wandering about looking for whatever I could find and take pictures of. It was cold. Well, I finally found a nice covered picnic table, so I decided to sit and do a little picture work. I turn on my computer and what do I find? WiFi! That’s right you virtual travelers, Rob found the perfect spot, out of all of the little town of Gryon, Switzerland to steal the internet. So don’t worry our daily update will try to remain daily. (unless of course there is a huge storm and I can’t muster up the courage to trek through the snow to my WiFi’d picnic table table)

I spent the evening cooking dinner, reading and having a debate with Nick and Jana about the values of a Capitalistic society vs. those of a Semi-Capitalistic/Semi-Socialistic society.

Other than excitement today was a pretty mellow day, but when you have views like this, who can complain.
