After a long day of lugging a backpack around on the crowded metro and a field trip, the seven of us (Jess, Lauren, Ethan, Tom, John, Sam, and I) left on the night train to Interlaken, Switzerland. As soon as we started ascending the mountains the pressure got crazy and there was an ear-popping fiasco like nothing I've ever felt before. We made it through without any broken ear drums or broken bones (even though John almost fell off his bed and crushed me in the middle of the night.) The seven of us all slept in tiny beds lining the walls of a 6 person sleeper car. It was actually pretty fun, and a testament to our friendships that no one ended up out the window.
