Here are my shoes—well, some of them. Shoes keep leaping into my hands, crying of America, the land of Milk and Honey, and who am I to stand in the way of their dreams of emigration? I should really take a picture of these off my feet, so that you can see the beautiful bright pinky coral insides. The outsides are suede, in a difficult to capture color—like evergreen with a shot of aqua. I call it “Spruce of the Sea.”
Now, I had meant to post Alexa Abroad! Part Two! by now, but my mother has the energy of a coked-up nineteen-year-old, and while I have been awake every night until the wee hours, there has been no time to sit and type. Which, frankly, is probably just as well, because then these entries would be about how I sat and typed while looking at Switzerland out the window. So do not expect the next installment anytime terribly soon.
But OH, do I have stories. And pictures! Until then, I will be thinking of you fondly, and trying not to fall into any large bodies of water.
Alexa Abroad! Intermission.

you have very pretty feet and I’m jealous! And I LOVE your hoes! Have a wonderful time xxx
Cute shoes! Take lots of pictures now – you can always do a day by day set of posts when you get home!
CUTE! But do they tell time?
OK, who fell in the SEE? You or Dra.
very pretty shoes. and beautiful feet and ankles. (i don’t mean that in a weird way)
switzerland always really brings out my allergies too. maybe it’s too clean and beautiful there?
In that pic, you have the EXACT stance of Dorothy in Wizard of Oz.
Enjoy and have fun!! xo
Ohhhh…I want those shoes. Gorgeous color.
I just bought a pair of black slides for summer and when I got them home my husband said, “Those look just like your old black sandals.” I scoffed and said something about how guys know nothing about shoes. Then I took them upstairs to my bedroom and got out my old pair from last year (and the year before–gross)to throw them away, and ummm…yes, I bought the EXACT same pair of shoes for this year. Same brand, same style, same color. I guess I know what I like!
Glad you are having such great adventures.
GORGEOUS SHOES!!! But you already knew that. :o)
I love those shoes. Love them. I hope you are having a FABULOUS time in Switzerland!!!
Go get ‘em! (I wish I knew how to translate that into French. Alors, laissez les bonnes temps roulez, will have to suffice!)
Fantastic shoes!
Want.Those. Shoes. WAAAANT.
Wow!
OH! Cute shoes, and they look comfortable..but now you have me wanting to go to Switzerland (was that the Bodensee?)
I really enjoyed part one and look forward to part two =) I have two siblings who live in Switzerland, near Baden, so I am always especially partial to hearing stories of other peoples’ travels there. Mmmm.
Cute shoes!! I can’t wait to see some of the others you’ve rescued… and hear more of your tales abroad.
Have tons and tons of fun and I can’t wait to read all about it :)
GREAT shoes! Shoes are my vice, as well. You must be having an awesome time!!
Glad to hear you are having such a good time. Can’t wait to read and see more about it.
To say that I am living vicariously through you is an understatement….considering I dreamt about you being in Switzerland having all sorts of fun….I probably should do more work, and read less blogs :)
Keep having fun. :)
Sweet shoes! I am enjoying your tales of adventure – can’t wait to hear more.
Hope you are having a wonderful time in Switzerland!! Enjoy every single minute of it… you deserve it!!
(Then please come home and write dozens of posts about it all so we can live vicariously through you!)
