1 week left!

On Thursday, I met my friends from L’Abri at the train station at 1:45. They had hitched down from the mountain. We walked up to the cathedral, took pictures, and went shopping. It was great to see them again (see pictures)!

On Friday, I walked to Ouchy, went to the souvenirs shop, and took the metro all the way until it stopped. I then walked down from the old part of town to Hotel Bellerive. Later that night, I looked online to see where there was a bowling alley and found one within walking distance of the hotel. Around 9:00, I headed out in the rain to find the bowling alley. The alley had 14 lanes and was packed! The bowling computer screen is all in American and everything is the exact same. I got shoes and went to Lane 1. I threw my first ball and got 9 pins down. Yeah! Of course, one of the pins blocked the ball return. I thought that I could fix the problem by throwing another ball and that did not work. So I had to go up to the counter and try and explain the situation in another language. It eventually got fixed and proceeded with bowling a 151 (see picture). I then took the bus and walked back to the hotel.

I have had a great time in Lausanne and look forward to returning again soon!
