Zurich City |
After much discussion, we have decided to go to Zurich city today. There were still a few things we needed to get and hadn't yet found elsewhere. Zurich is a beautiful city. Gary needed to buy another pair of hiking shoes as the podiatrist recommends having at least 2 pair of shoes and interchange them every other day. I wouldn't mind this too much but it took Gary a bit of time to decide to follow other people's advise. We were also looking to replace my old Spanish watch as it was not telling me the correct time any longer. I have settled for a Swiss watch with a metal band. It has been difficult to buy watches lately as my skin reacts to most bands. So far so good with this one. Well we have also been on the lookout for a solar charging unit for my IPod and found one here in Switzerland in an Apple store. Well what is shopping in Europe without sitting down in one of the many terraces for lunch and afternoon tea in our case. We enjoyed a burger with chips and salad, but boy what is it expensive here. Unfortunately for Dora the day finished with a parking fine. On our return to Mannedorf we did some shopping and decided to watch the sunset at the lake with a couple of beers. Today was our first day in Europe with wonderful weather. Gary has suggested to return to Europe for a 12 month stay. I reckon that would be an awesome experience as I can imagine myself spending the winter months on the ski slopes somewhere and enjoying a white Christmas again.
