Hitchhikers Guide to...Europe

On our way through the picturesque villages and mountains we encounter...hitchhikers. While slowing down to turn a curve just loaded with traffic, suddenly there are two guys with their thumbs sticking out. There is instant paranoia exploding in my supposedly smart brain, and when I hear my dad say "There's no room" I assume that he is talking about in the car for people rather than on the road. So I shriek "drive faster!!!" and they of course all give me extremely odd looks. This kinda made up for my dad calling the Bavarian Alps the Swiss Alps on the dumbness scale, which we had all been teasing him about mercilessly for the past half hour.

Then as we make it back on the sorta highway, we pass a hill, where on the top there is a fenced off area filled with tons of creatures that sorta looked like camels. My mother immediately exclaims that they are not camels, but llamas, which she can tell oh so certainly from so far away. My oblivious brother, once away from the hill, begins scanning the area and asking what camels??? I told him that they were invisible camels, and for a second, he looked like he believed me. Then my mom muttered, "Llamas."

So began our Easter adventure, with the invisible camel-llamas in the Swiss Alps. What is wrong with our family? Don't answer that.

The rest of the trip would have been wonderful, with our visit to Neuschwanstien Castle, or however the heck it's spelled, and the german food, and the hotel, and and and...but I was sick the whole time so that slightly ruined it for me. Then we came home to unpack and clean stuff. Fun fun.

So now I am ignoring chores and my movie, which I shall return to now. The movie at least.
