Just got back from vacation, where we drove through 7 counties: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Italy, Monaco and France. 11 hours one way not accounting for traffic jams, and it took us 12 and 16 hours in real life.

On our way back, I rented a Chalet in an Italian high mountain camping village called "Ёлки-Палки". It was great overall, but there was a small nuisance in one of the rooms: just before our arrival, a butterfly laid eggs on a top level of a bunk bed, they hatched during the night, so thousands of tiny caterpillars went on a quest to find some fresh leaves for dinner. Caterpillars started descending towards my lower bed using their threads. This is how nature works, but Julia was scared first.

One of the hosts spoke adequate English, but I did not expect him to know the word "caterpillar". So, I had to find words in Italian, and came up with "thousands of small caterpillars in the room" - "мияйя ди пикколи брукки нелла камера"
