• An afternoon in Zurich

    May 11, 2016 in Switzerland ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    Well we made it safely to Zurich for the first leg of the journey. We both managed to get a few hours sleep on the plane. The flight was bumpy - really bumpy. I don't like bumpy, but we made it safely. Once we landed, we put our carry on in a locker at the airport and headed into the city to stretch our legs and see the sights.

    Zurich is pretty cool with lots of little side alleys and street front cafes. There's a couple of big churches and many bridges crossing back and forth over the river.

    The people are diverse and very friendly. After all, it's Switzerland!

    We had a quick meal (quick but definitely not cheap!!) at the Hauptbahnhoff anf then caught the train back to the airport for our next 10 hour flight into Johannesburg. Swiss Air has been great and so far I've watched Spectre anf The Martian
