Switzerland here i come

After 10 days of nervous waiting, the Fedex man finally dropped my package at my front door and Julz had the responsibilty to open it (because i was at work) and inform me whether or not there was a Schengen visa stuck in my passport... after a very long and nerve racking day, at 4:05pm i finally received an sms from her reading, "your foto looks cute in your schengen visa, YEAH" i haven't been that relieved and happy in a long long time!! :)

Now all the plans that Stu and i have been discussing seem real without the visa cloud hanging over my head (well except for the usa tourist visa i now need to apply for)... i can now let myself get super excited about my summer in Switzerland and Europe... YAY :) details to follow on plans whilst in Switzerland... there is nothing concrete yet!

Other than the visa excitement not much else is happening in Zero Beach, except for work... we are mid way through Easter week, the week we were told we would be the busiest the entire season but so far business has been slow... it would seem that this economic recession has hit even the rich! The US unemployment rate reached a 25 year high of 8,5%... at this rate they are going to leap frog over SA, a scary thought for the "world's most powerful nation"

Once Easter is behind us our season is basically over, a large majority of the members return up North and a number of staff go off to start their summer jobs... i can't believe it's been 6 months already, it's been a hard season but a very enjoyable one! :)
