StringGirl: packing up, hitting the "road", and taking the world's safest flight (?)

StringGirl is getting ready to hit the trail on her way to Zurich. Why does she think it is the safest flight? Well the flight goes via Amsterdam from Detroit. After Christmas we are figuring that the odds of any odd goings on there should be lower. StringGirl was a little disturbed by the news Christmas morning but we assured her that the TSA would certainly see fit to inconvenience any extremists into missing this flight. Hopefully there will be no new posts of StringGirl in such a scene. In brighter news. StringGirl is (has just recieved her Swiss Halbtax card for SBB) what's that mean? Half price rail tickets Around Switzerland for the next two years. And Half off at some partner resorts and ski hills. So StringGirl is getting her board sharpened and waxed for Lenzerheide and Flumserberg in the coming weeks.
