Canoe sex / American beers

I arrived at UCSD on monday... Everything fell in place, work is going fine, workout after hours.

Just a small anecdote though :

Yesterday I went to the mall, buy some groceries, for breakfast, my daily salad, etc etc.

Indeed, I was going to buy a 6-pack of american beer.

(Not this one, but Samuel Adams, which is better...). There I come, at the counter. Indeed, the cashier asks for my ID. I show him my French ID.

- Oh, sorry, we dont take this...

- Really? - OK, here s my driving license...

- Still not valid...

- I am not supposed to walk around all the time with my passport, am I?

- I am afraid that would not be sufficient : we do not accept foreign ids. Any.

- So... how does that work, I cant have a beer with my friends?

- You're supposed to ask for a temporary id.

- for three weeks?

- I am afraid so...

- damn...............

*beers stayed there...

Now I have to ask my recently turned 21 flatmate to buy beer for me... What a beautiful country. I am just hoping that they will let me in a bar tonight!

cheers.

Mallorca !

This weekend I went with Camille to Mallorca, visiting Miguel (see the last posts from Argentina).
He lives in a lovely farm in the middle of nowhere (we barely saw a single german!!!)

Corrida

This Sunday, I went with one of my roommate to a corrida... I know, i know, it was awful... But I had to go, right?
Next June 21st, Ill go to some concert instead of some slaughter game, I promise.

Ajaccio

Some pictures of the national park "Scandola", and Ajaccio's surroundings... who s in?

The last picture is a metaphor for heaven, as I see it anyway. I had saved some chocolate from Zurich...

Zurich

Here are a couple of pictures I've been willing to upload for a while...
For those familiar with Le Grand Bornand, I am sure you'll recognize La Pointe Percee, le col des aravis,etc etc... :-) Et bien sûr le Mont Blanc.

Here is a special picture, I see it as the Swiss version of the famous toilets scene in Trainspotting.
And that's how you surf a couch...
