The Hills are alive with the sound of...Up With People???






Welcome to what is quite possibly THE most beautiful place on earth...SWITZERLAND!!!! What a perfectly charming little country. Charming is really the best way to Describe the beauty of Switzerland. It is peacful but active and rustic with a modern vibe. The people are amazing, the food is incredible, and I got to play "mountain women" for two days up in the Swiss Alps. It was an amazing oppurtunity, but I have never been so dirty. For two days we worked on a farm helping a family with building a trench for water and cutting down small shrubs in the way of the cows. We had to take a cable car to get up to the house, then had to hike another 40minutes up to the work site. On the hike we passed a beautiful waterfall and had some absolutely glorious views. It was spectacular. On Monday we had a regional learning day and went up Mount Pilatus on the highest cogwheel train in the world! It was SOO cool! At the top it was foggy but still incredible. It was like being on top of the world. We had an educational workshop about Teamwork today (thursday) that really helped refocus the cast and re-evaluate were we are at as a cast. We played some team building games and had an egg-drop contest (my team's design won of course ;) ) It was fun and a great learning experience. Tomorrow is the show, Sunday is a free day and Monday we leave for Germany! So until now Aufwiedersehen darlings (just thought I'd through in a Sound of Music qoute for all you fans!!!)
