france last week, austria this week, egypt next week

Once again we"re under the pump when it comes to internet. Finally we"re staying somewhere with free internet and I have a kid standing about 1 metre from me just staring at me waiting. Yes you kid, if you can read this....

Anyway, just thought I"d give you a quick update on what we"ve been up to over the last week or so since I blogged from Beaune in the Burgundy wine region of France. We headed off the next day to Lausanne which is just into Switzerland. We only spent one night there before meeting up with our friends Andrew and Jenni in Interlaken which is at the foot of the Jungfrau mountains in the Swiss alps. We went hiking in the alps for a couple of days which was just incredible. The scale of the mountains is something else altogether.

We then moved onto Lucerne for a couple of nights. The full day we had there we hired bikes and rode around the lake which is gorgeous. The old town itself was quite cool too. Yesterday we headed to Innsbruck in Austria where we are right now while Andrew and Jenni went to Zurich to visit a friend. Today we"ll meet up with them again in Salzburg for a couple of nights before heading to Vienna for a few nights. From Vienna it"s a long flight to Cairo to start our Egypt trip. But that"s too far to think about right now. For now it"s a few more days of mountains and beautiful European cities.

Hope all is well with you all back at home.
