The Sostmans were up and about before the French's. When I announced there would be no alarm this morning - I was serious. It was after 8:00 before I gave serious consideration to having coffee or opening my eyes (not to be considered - one without the other!)
After a heavenly cup of foamy cappuccino we made our daily trek to the Bahnhof where train reservations were made for the rest of our adventure. Hard to believe this is our last day in Zurich. Time flies. I try to concentrate on what is immediately around me, knowing I'll want to store it all in my memories. Regardless of how tired I am, I'm almost afraid to close my eyes - I might miss something.
Jim decided to loiter in the downtown area while Phil, Laurrie and I headed for the S? to take the train to the Uetliberg - a mountain overlooking Zurich. The day was clear enough, we could see the alps. (I forgot to mention, on the train returning from Geneva, the clouds lifted briefly & we had an outstanding view of Mont Blanc)
From the end station, it's a bit of an uphill climb to reach the top - forget those young women pushing buggies - I'm insisting it was a air-gasping climb. The views are well worth it and require a beer stop to appropriately appreciate the views.
