time flies when you are having fun?

ok so i accidentally forgot to upate in a while. well, this is not entirely true, but partly. the internet was down all weekend and i forgot to get into gear and actually update! friday morning began with "food and drink taboos" - things not to serve at a formal meal, common allergies, medical diets (like diabetes/coeliacs etc) and obv the big'un - religious taboos. interesting to see the different kind of diets people follow because of their religions! then spain, which was standard country-file as it were. bull-fighting was discussed in detail! after class was an indian thali lunch. SO nice! the food was great and eating with my hands was interesting, the principal told me i ate gracefully with my hands...which made me think that she thought i did it a lot, which i dont. see pics:



anyway, friday afternoon is a blur. i.e i don't quite remember what i did! ah yes, now i remember. shanelle and i walked down to montreux! see pics:



then in the evening we had a dance party after watching bride and prejudice, my first ever bollywood film, which was great, in one of the classrooms in our pyjamas(!) before going to bed to get up for our saturday excursion to zurich! it was such fun, and some nice exercise too!



saturday morning was an early start for the trip to zurich, which i was looking forward to as i was meeting up with a friend from nottingham and a good day of shopping!




sunday was spent by the pool, accidentally burning myself. oops. like lobster. i cant remember the last time i was this burnt. eek. sunday evening irene and madame lopez made us all raclette because some of us are leaving on friday! can't believe how quickly it has gone!!

ok this is enough for one post, i need to pack some and get ready for class (yes, we have class in the evenings - pr.) expect more like this soon!
