I leave early tomorrow for a short retreat in the mountains.  I will return Sunday night.  I plan to spend the first few days in Pontresina.  I'm sorry I haven't written about my adventures up to now.  I must make note on the train so I remember to write the interesting details.  Until then, it will just be notes when I hit an internet spot.  Peace!

I just looked Pontresina up in Google Earth (http://earth.google.com/--get it, it's so much more fun than just maps.google); it looks awesome just in a tiny 3D model!

I``m here in Pontresina. It turns out to be a famous resort town. Oops. My first plan fell t hrough, but I found a hostel with very welcoming fpeople. I got off t he train and went right to dinner. Yum! The mountains are beautiful, though I haven`t seen them in daylight yet. There are lots of hiking trails that will take me out of the touristy part, so I`m still happy! Internet is hard to come by, so I don`t know when I^ll write again, at least when I change places. Love to all!

I`m now in Chur, two hours from Pontresina. I plan to take a leasurly train ride back to Basel tomorrow, stopping at any place that looks interesting. I have had an amazing two days of hiking and mountain viewing. Wow! It is so beautiful in the Alps! Note to Mom: Anu has the information of where I`m staying, so not to worry. Now I`ll go get dinner and sleep! Hiking wears you out. Love, Janet

If you can, check out Saturday night's total lunar eclipse.

I'm back safe and sound despite having spent my last night in front of a few strip clubs . . . The weather turned bad so I decided to cut the visit short. It was a full and happy trip, though! Many details soon to come I hope. Thanks for your prayers!
