Flag of Switzerland  ,
Saturday, December 22, 2007

Thousands of stars sparkle on the surface of the snow,
full moon washes the world blue
the earth is shining
as I snow shoe to a distant hut for fondue and gluwein (hot spiced wine)
with 20 complete strangers.
The cold air slaps me awake,
despite its being 1 am...
it is Christmas eve.

Christmas morning
Jagged peaks pierce the azure blue...
now I really know what azure is.
Mike and Sophi spend the day skiing down snowy slopes,
I spend the day quietly hiking up them.

The alps are amazing!
