And that would be… CostcoWarrior.com TADA!

For those skeptics out there, I had the list before I had the website. :)

 
 

#6 – Austria, #19 – Switzerland 24 June 2008

Checking the list, checking the list

May 2008 marked two more places off the Bucket List–Austria and Switzerland.

Switzerland was beautiful–I loved the cows with big bells around their necks that tinkled when they grazed.  The mountains were socked in a lot of our trip, but still majecstic and severe.  We took a “car ferry” train through one of the mountains to avoid driving around it (you drive your car onto a simple open air cargo train that takes you through the train tunnel)–totally crazy and so unique.

Austria was only a short bit of our trip but I fell in love with Salzburg for sure.  I’d still like to go back to Vienna and Innsbruck and some of the countryside, but I feel if I don’t make it back that Salzburg can make up for that in a heartbeat.  My favorite thing was the view from the fortress above the city looking out over the city and the surrounding countryside–breathtaking!

 
 

Guava Yogurt is Nasty 23 June 2008

Filed under: Funny, Rants — WarriorWife @ 5:18 pm

Last week yogurt was on sale–20 for $10.  Sweet deal.  Only problem was the selection was pretty picked over by the time we hit the shelves.  We got a few standard flavors and decided to branch out and try some of the more “interesting” flavors remaining.

For your information…see title of this post.  Also on the nasty list: Mango.
