Chamonix and Swiss

The day my dad got home we went on a wild excursion to the very touristy the very good ski area that lies right right in the shadow of the enormous Mt. Blanc. It was so high that I couldn't even see the top. It took forever to get there but we finally did dog and all. To tell you the truth I think he was very content, who wouldn't be if you got to scarf up peanut after peanut that dropped on the seat of the car. It was rather cold , but worth it. After we got settled in to our very log cabin like room, we went out to dinner (without the dog ). We stopped at a nice little (again log cabin like) restaurant. There I got the most delicious... well I don't know what but it was good. It was pasta with melted cheese and ham on the inside, ohhhhh my gosh it was soooo good. After having our stomachs full of melted cheese we had to go walk our critter (who is sitting here reading my every word and he says hello). While out for our strole I felt deprived of a delicious desert that I could have had at the log cabin restaurant so I got a delicious crep. Then we went to bed.
I bet you guys don't really get the point of this trip because it so far has had no historical impact on my schooling so far. To tell you the truth I didn't really get it either. But it was still really cool.

The next day we woke up and packed up, we (including the dog) were going to Switzerland, Martini to be exact. In this city of Martini there is an art museum with a very interesting art exhibition of Marc Chagall, but before we went to see that exhibit we stopped to fill our tummies with hot chocolate and croissants. After we were all content with our breakfast, we went to the car museum that was just underneath the main exhibit. These cars were fabulous, oh my gosh its a shame we did not take any pictures of this. They had sooo many cars, they even had one the oldest factory produced car!!!!! They had Rolls Royce's, they had martinis, they had brands of cars that I had never even heard of. My parents finally had to force me out of that room (I was pretty bummed). After seeing that exhibit my standards were pretty high for the rest of the museum. Being the sports person that I am I was not overly impressed with the paintings (art really isn't my thing). My dad and I had to literally force my Mom out of that exhibit so we could go out side and see the sculpture (so for all of you people out there who know my mom well and know she is a sculpture herself you can imagine that she was not overly bummed about leaving the paintings). I have to say that the sculpture was really cool (all though some of it rather strange). I can honestly say that the whole family enjoyed the sculpture part of the museum. We finally left the museum and went to I nice swiss restaurant where I ordered a very strange combination toppings on a pizza, it was salmon, cream, olive oil, and tomato sauce. I have to tell you it was delicious, the guy who ran the place came up to me and said that was the wierdest combination of a pizza that he had ever heard of. Well that pretty much wraps this trip up.
