People have been wondering if I had any big stories in regards to making it to Chambéry. So I will fill everyone in. Basically I didn't have any real issues with the plane. I did have a hard time sleeping but besides that I sat net to a few friendly children and enjoyed a few complimentary glasses of wine. I'm not sure if that helped aid or hurt my ability to sleep but overall I didn't sleep much from Denver to Frankfurt to Lyon.
While waiting for my bus to Chambéry, I met a nice girl, one might even say "hippie chick" whose name was Dolphin, or at least something close to that. Anyway she was really nice and we talked for a few hours while waiting for my bus. She was there waiting for a friend and her entire backpack was filled with jugs of wine. She just finished her job picking grapes in the south of France and they give you as much as you can carry of wine when you leave. Her job sounded like an experience for sure. Basically she would start both work and drinking wine at 9 am and not stop drinking until bedtime.
She got to meet a lot of people from all over and had a lot of fun. Unfortunately there where plenty of instants where she drank too much and got sick from the wine.
Eventually the bus arrived and we said au revoir.

So how exactly would one go about getting a job drinking too much wine? I feel I have the necessary credentials...
Yeah, that would be a pretty sweet deal...if only I didn't get wine headaches...maybe they'd go away with accomadation... did they pay her in wine?
I think she got an actual wage besides the wine. Yet it sounded like each day was all you could drink.
