We are getting ready to leave zurich, switzerland...a gorgeous big city, the prettiest yet. you will get the idea when u see the pictures. we walked around the little town after we checked into our hostel last night...we stayed on the 7th floor above a restaurant...yikes. but we got showers this morning and ate some pastires and espresso, mmmm. the people here are nice, still speaking german here...so we still get around with a gutendag and sprekense english? and danka shane pretty well. we are off to venice, italy now...in about a half an hour, its a 7 hour train ride...but the rest will be greatly appreciated...AND we will be seeing many beautiful things out our train window,like the swiss alps...cant wait for that. the train ride from frankfurt to zurich was amazing in itself. rolling green hills with ornate houses tucked away, all spread out. no corporate mess or fast food joints to ruin the picturesque. loving it, our time on this comp is almost up, i will write more later when we get to venice. we will be staying there at least two days, so we will have much more time to do more. they say wine is cheaper than water in italy, cant wait to take advantage of that. love you guys
