Well I don't think I was flirting, but there was this cute swiss woman on my flight from Frankfurt that happened to be coming home to Geneva after being away for a year. It turns out she has been living about a mile from me in Manhattan Beach for the last 4 months. We had a very nice conversation and I helped her with her bags afterward. Then she said goodbye to me the swiss way and hoped I had a nice weekend with my cousins. It kind of made it better since Lufthansa lost my luggage in Frankfurt and didn't get it to me until 11pm tonight.

[Kevster]

What is the swiss way? lol

The Swiss, at least the Swiss in french-speaking Cantons (states), greet eachother with a kiss on each cheek. The normal French greeting is two times - one on each cheek. The Swiss way is three times. The Swiss also say goodbye that way as well. Normally you do this only with people you are friends with, so for her to do that after being on a plane together for 2 hours was quite nice. :)

If you ever get the chance, I highly recommend visiting Switzerland. It is lovely in both summer and winter.

[Jenny]

Ahh, ok. ;) Cool. Glad you're having fun!
