Amazing Chocolate, Beautiful lake, Clock tower and Germans. I went to Zurich this past week (mainly for work) and had an amazing time! I walked the Bahndestrat (major shopping district), saw a local antique market- with way overpriced cow bells and lots of weiner schnitzel.
Zurich is a quite town with lots of fun history. I stayed by the opera house and close to the shopping areas, so it wasn't too hard to stay entertained! My hotel had a lovely balcony (fresh breeze was always welcomed) and the bath tub was perfect. Just the right size for a normal person! I must have one of those some day in my house.
It only rained a few days while I was there, off and on, but the sun came out and the lake was surrounded by lunchoners and duckies. I had some amazing truffles.. I can see why people pay extra for premium chocolate! I did see the swiss alps from town, briefly one day, and on my flight out of town. They are definately amazing.
I'd like to go to Geneva next time- I hear you come out of the airport you can go to either France or Switzerland. 2 stamps for the price of one!!!
