Zurich

Grabbing an early train, we headed for breakfast in Zurich. We planned a stopover here for about 3.5 hours before heading on to Innsbruck. The continental breakfast at Cafe au Conditorei was lovely, and we were treated to Sunday morning bells from the nearby cathedral as we ate.

We walked around the old town and down to Lake Obersee - both the lake and the Limmat River that ran through Zurich to it were incredibly clear and an iridescent blue under the sunshine. Back up the Bahnhofstrass, which seemed to be the Swiss equivalent of Regent/Bond St, we headed to the Platzspitz Park to sit in the shade next to the river before retrieving our luggage and heading on the 12.40 to Innsbruck.

Despite the length of the train, it was packed with lots of reserved seats so it was a bit of a challenge to get seated. But we're on our way to Austria!
