Zurich!

Posted byolePosted inZurich 22

Ah, old town Zurich. So great. And I had a couple of hours to wander it, before having dinner at Veltlinerskeller, a highly rated little restaurant in a 16th century building’s beer cellar… but first…

Self portrait
Yes, it was raining a bit
Old buildings, weird street angles, and bicycles!
OMG a J/70 in the Zurich harbor
The venerable Opera house
Gotta love that architecture…
The inner harbor
Not sure if you can tell, but in Zurich all the clock towers have the correct time 🙂
In Zurich all the old churches are in good repair
Love those old buildings built out *on* the water
Wow – Swiss chocolate, who can resist?
(Well I did, because I was saving myself for dinner 🙂
The Rathouse (former government- council building)
Streets built well before cars were a thing
This old stone bridge was new – from 1600s!
Main shopping avenue
Dinner! – at the Veltliner Keller
Not one 90 degree angle anywhere in sight
White asparagus!
Beef in cognac sauce, with spatzle of course
And note the Swiss Merlot which was awesome
flaming dessert
The circus comes to town
Seemed to be a Cirque du Soleil – like experience – wish I could have gone – next time…
And home!

Yes, time to sleep, and yes, it already feels like I am on local time. Good night!
