December Update

Well, its now December 11th, and I am sad to say that my Dad was not able to make his trip out to visit me. Both of us were very much looking forward to spending some time together. Hopefully he will be able to make it out at a later time in the season. Anyway, remember how I was saying that we had SO much snow!? Well, it started raining a few days ago and melted ALL of it haha. Before all the snow melted, I had taken a nice walk around town and took some pictures. After it had melted a few days later, it all came back again overnight, just not as much. Well, since my last blog, our team has been quite successful. We are now 8-4 and sitting comfortably in 4th place in league play. We had a good sweep win over Schaffhausen, a team that swept us 0-3 the first time we played. We also had another good sweep win over Aesch Pfeffingen, who we beat the first time in 4 games. Today we are looking for our 9th win, where we will play away against Geneva. Then, next weekend we play at home against Cheseaux (for league play) and then away on Sunday against Dudingen for a special Swiss Cup playoff match. After those matches, it will be vacation time!!!!! Also, a close friend and former college teammate/roommate of mine, Lauren, is currently in Switzerland! She was playing for a team in Italy and was having a tough experience with her club and is looking for a new team here in Switzerland. This past Monday, my roommates and I went to visit her in Zurich, and it was so nice to see her and catch up. We are hoping that she can find a team and stay here in Switzerland, that way we can all meet up on weekends and hang out or travel together. Anyway, I hope all of you are enjoying your December and making the most of this holiday season! Sending Christmas cheer all the way from Switzerland :)
