Other than doing laundry in the creepy basement, nothing out of the ordinary happened today. My favorite thing of the day is a toss up between the crepe I made myself earlier or the fried rice Jen made me for dinner! Quite a cultured day of meals! Yum.

Laundry Room/Bomb Shelter
Basically every building in Switzerland has a bomb shelter, and the one in my dorm is very similar to what our laundry room looks like. Needless to say, it is creepy down there! Oh, and along that line of safety and being prepared I learned the other day that all of Switzerland's tunnels, for trains and cars, have dynamite in them in case of invasion! It is really creepy about when going through tunnels on the train and being in them for a really long time! I was also told that Switzerland can have all of it's borders protected within 6 hours, and after graduating high school every boy is required to do about 4 months of military training, just in case! Anyway, back to the bomb shelter laundry room- doing laundry in a foreign country is not fun because every button on the machines is so confusing and different and I don't like it! To change the amount of time to dry your clothes, you either hit a button with 2 or 3 water droplets, which makes sense, or a button that shows 3 different stages of a sunrise... which doesn't make sense!
