Today was a relatively calm day, we started by touring CERN in Geneva - this is home to the Large Hadron Collider and the place where the internet was invented. Needless to say, it's a science nerd's Mecca. 

I geeked out pretty hard about seeing the original diagram and device for the first world wide web server...

From there Nick and I then (sadly) parted ways out intrepid co-travellers Luke and Kelsey. It was an absolutely fantastic time with them, which was not only a whole lot of fun, but also grew our friendship exponentially. #Feelings


Nick and I then boarded a train from Geneva to Munich (with a transfer in Zurich). An eight hour total trip, but it was absolutely worth every minute. The view for pretty much the entire ride was like a Bob Ross painting. Amazing.

We also learned that in Zurich, you can buy a pregnancy test in the train platform vending machine, for those times you accidentally get impregnated will getting off the train.. Also, the brand name is perfect: MaybeBaby
