Each participant received a free Swiss Rail Pass. These passes not only gave unlimited access to Swiss trains, museums, and busses, but also to the Swiss Ferry system. Getting to France for dinner was simply a matter of hopping on a ferry in Lausanne and getting off an hour later in Evian. No one even asked to see our passports! |

Can we have A+'s? Of course you can. |
| Our hosts took us to the Montreau Jazz Festival as well as the Paleo Music Festival. At Paleo we had our own private box overlooking the main stage. | |

Some of us went to this spa where this whirlpool whisked us around a spiral. The spa also featured an "Arctic Nights" room that recreated the night time conditions at the North Pole so that bathers could run through it in their swim suits, or au Naturel! They also played Mozart under the water. |
| The obligatory view of the Matterhorn from the train window. The Alps were fantastic, and just a free train ride away. | |

The summer school made the national news in Switzerland. We were all celebreties for 15 minutes! |
