Family Visit


This has been an exciting week. Chris's parents have been visiting from Santa Rosa. Chris did not take much time off of work since we are going on vacation tomorrow so I have been the tour guide. We've explored the Lindt chocolate factory and have eaten our way through what I thought was an endless amount of chocolate. Unfortunately it was not, but the factory is easily accessible. We drove around the lake and we were only lost for about 30 minutes in the 2 hours it took. I'm very proud of myself.


We toured the Swiss Land Museum. I think my favorite part was our guide explaining to our group about a particular Swiss chair and how beautiful and functional it is, but also how uncomfortable it is.


Of course we went to the big three: Grossmunster, Fraumunster, and St. Peter's Kirche. We also rode the Polybahn which takes us to the university and a beautiful view of the city.


We walked around the main train station and took a tram down Bahnhoffstrasse. We ate lunch at Sprungli and took a boat ride around the lake. It has been such a great week!
