Move and No Fasnacht!

The move went well and last night was my first night in the new apartment. With the help of a few friends, we started at 10:30 and completed the move by 12:00. I now have an apartment littered with boxes and bags and it'll be a week before I'm unpacked. The move was mostly painless, but I was reminded of how inexperienced I am at driving. A friend graciously loaned me his VW bus and I had a tricky time parking it in the narrow space outside the apartment. Perhaps I should hire movers next time.

The first night in a new apartment is the strangest. It's an odd feeling turning off the lights and realizing that you're in a foreign location in your own bed. Swiss law gives you a day off work to help with the move and I'll be using that today to run errands. Fasnacht has begun in St. Gallen and I couldn't be happier to be outside of the old town. Call me a Fasnacht Grinch, but there's little worse than being forced to listen to the same crappy gugge tune over and over again!

I've posted a few photos of the empty apartment and I may post more after I'm done unpacking.
