zurich, switzerland. our first stop.

at SDF about to leave on our adventure. the airport can be such an exciting place. we had time for a little dinner too..then our plane ride over the atlantic..it was uncomfortable and exhausting, but that's ok !  :

 

view from Renaissance Hotel in Zurich. the way over to the hotel from the airport was stressful.. it took us some time to figure out what we were doing. but it is a lovely hotel. very fancy, thanks priceline! :

she is located in the Zurich Hauptbahnhof (Central Station):

everyone raves about this ice cream, and the praise is well deserved:

planters are all over the windows in zurich. why are they so amazing?!

the cobblestone streets in old town. so lovely.:

bridges, lakes, old buildings and GERMAN. oh my :)

i adore zurich. it is one of the most beautiful(and expensive) cities around.:

the locals jumping into the water on a hot, hot day:

swans on the lake. alps in the back. my heart was bursting:

we took a photo here while we were dating:

zurich was great(of course). we walked and walked and walked some more. we sure have missed hearing the German language and all the beauty. it was overwhelming. i sure did miss the lifestyle, the food, the bahn(trains) and all. they even had a bike parking lot..i thought those were only in heavily populated asian cities. i thought it was pretty cool. 

thanks zurich, we really enjoyed our time!
