This week has been filled with tombs, catacombs, and a cemetery. For the Catholics here (as I'm sure they are in other places and with most religions) are very serious about death and how the body is prepared and what can be done to the bodies. Well after hearing about this process and seeing that we were walking in this cemetery for 3 hours and barely even scratched the surface of all the people it contained, I came to the conclusion that there were too many graves in this world, and when I die I will not add to its ranks. Instead I want to be cremated. Then I would like my ashes to be spread throughout the Swiss Alps. But half during the summer and the other half during the winter. Why you may ask. Well here you go. Some of my ashes can go snow skiing, some rock climbing, some sky diving, some hang gliding, some whitewater rafting, some canyoning, and any other possible sport involving nature in Switzerland : )And if ever my family wants to visit my "grave site" they can go to Switzerland and do one of these many awesome things and think of me. They could even just enjoy the scenery and think of me, because I'm sure some of my ashes will be doing that as well. They would celebrate the time I had on earth by participating in some of the things I love to do!
