In this last video of our Swiss series, we visit Zurich the largest city in Switzerland. We soon discover how obsessed the city (or the Swiss in general) are with clocks and the time. The water in Lake Zurich is unbelievably clear and blue. Too bad it was still chilly or else we would have taken a dip. Grossmünster church has wonderful stained glass windows and a gorgeous organ. Since we have been to so many churches over the past several weeks, our visit was short. But for those we are interested, the entry fee is CHF 5 (www.grossmuenster.ch/4.php?re.... We then treated ourselves to luxemburgerli from Confiserie Sprungli (www.spruengli.ch/en/). They opened their doors in 1836 and have been making these round sweets since 1957. They resemble French macarons and come in all different flavors. We went to the local Migros supermarket to buy groceries for breakfast and lunch before we headed to dinner at Rosaly's (www.rosalys.ch/). There we tried the local speciality, Zürcher Geschnetzeltes which are sliced veal strips in white wine, cream, and demi-glace. We also tasted the Rosaly's club sandwich, fillet of beef with truffle mayo.
It is important to us that we engage in regular physical activity, even when we're traveling. We ran all over Zurich, a nice way to take in the sites and gain a different perspective of the city. Another essential routine when we're on the road is to spend some time at the local park. It is amazing how you feel when you take a few minutes to reconnect with Mother nature while eating lunch. To "counterbalance" all the cheese and chips (amazing paprika flavored by Zweifel recommended by ‪@TheTravelingSwiss‬) we ate, we bought some green juice, full of vitamins and minerals. We also tried ‪@BundabergBrewedDrinks‬, an Australian ginger beer. While not a Swiss beverage per se, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to see what all the fuss is all about. We still think Maine Root is the best ginger beer of all time. Sorry ‪@flyingthenest‬.
We will be heading to a new country soon. Can you guess which one? A hint is in our last video. See you soon Dreamers!
