Well, it was a drawn out journey, but we finally made it to Switzerland on March 23rd rather than on the 21st due to a late-in-the-season snow fall - predictably Chicago, right? Well, I have to say, it was well worth the wait. Here are a couple of pictures from Zurich - what a terrific city. So beautfiul and exactly as I imagined it!
This is a really cute fountain near the a river or park of the lake, I can't recall which. Anyway, these awesome public drinking fountains are all over the place and, unless it is posted otherwise, you can drink from them - what a concept!!
This was a really beautiful gate where Winston Churchill was at some point I want to say after WWII. Again, if you love ornate and gorgeous architecture and accoutrements, this is THE place to be!!
This is a chot across the river(?) - it looks too narrow for a lake, but what do I know! LOL You can't swing a dead cat (sorry kitties) without hitting a church. They are almost as prolific as the cheese, chocolate and watches!!
Here is a closer view. This one dates from at least 1732!!
