Being mostly a warm-weather kind of guy (though you wouldn't know it from where I've lived over the past fourteen years) I don't generally feel inclined to try out alpine sports. That's not a hard and fast rule, however, and there are a few (e.g. bobsledding, yodeling, avalanche imprisonment) that have piqued my interest and which I've wanted to try. This weekend in Switzerland I got to cross curling off that list.
As you might be able to tell from the waning creativity of these title posts, I'm swamped. Unusually though, it's a good kind of swamped, with "work" balancing nicely with some fun side trips and social activities. With so little mans-a-keyboard time between me and my computer though, I've certainly fallen behind in keeping this site current, so it's status quo around this poorly-maintained blog.
Anyway, in an effort to at least post pictures of the aforementioned side trips, here are some from the trip to Lisbon and Sintra last weekend that the Portuguese club organized splendidly.
