Yesterday was a Love Parade-like festival(flier below) in Zurich and there must have been well over a quarter million people in the streets. Today we hit Gruyere for some exciting cheese making and sights. Heading into the mountains for the next 2 days for some hiking.

This town is full of cheap beer, inescapable techno, and more mullets than I can count. Heading to Switzerland in 8 hours. Below are a few more pics from places we went today that I took with my phone….. WordPress for iPhone is the shit.

The one benefit of my layover us that I got to finally try the Canadian delicacy of ketchup flavor chips(see below). My friend Will told me aboot them a while back, so I felt I needed to give them a try. I’m sad to say that they were pretty awful. Kind of an extra sour BBQ chip minus any of the good flavor. At least they don’t have shrimp flavored chips like the Chinese….

I like the idea of everyone having affordable health care, but the supply issue really needs to be addressed to prevent universal coverage from collapsing the system.

I head out Monday and the plan for the 2 week trip is: Berlin–>Prague–>Swizerland–>back to Prague for bachelor party–>wedding festivites in Dresden. It should be all sorts of fun/crazyness.
