Switzerlanded....

A hoy hoy,

Well here we are, we have made it to Switzerland safe and sound (well we made it here on Wednesday around 1pm - but finally have the internet up and running in our apartment). Our little apartment is at 6 Gletscher Straas - someone else actually lives here but is working out of town for the next few months so we're more or less house sitting. Ness is already working hard once again (the new Scenic office is located in Zug, around a 40 minute train ride away) and for the moment we're just trying to get our bearings and settle into our new home for the next couple of months. We haven't seen all that much of Zurich yet but it is a really beautiful city. It's a fair bit smaller than Amsterdam but much more picturesque (you'll see what I mean when we post some photos). Like most other places in Europe, you can swing a Toblerone and hit something of some historical significance (Useless fact - The shape of the Toblerone is supposed to represent the Matterhorn in the Alps). We're only about 5 minutes stroll from Lake Zurich and right on a tram line into the middle of the city which is only about a 30 minute stroll away. On a clear day you can even see the snow capped Alps way off in the distance.

Once again there are many museums and places of note in Zurich city itself but there are plenty more places out of the city that we would like to get to see. Within in our time here we hope to make it to Avignon to see Ness's family, my highlight here is to get to see the H.R. Giger Muesum in Gruyeres (and yes, that is where the cheese comes from - although there is cheese everywhere here).

Just a short one for now, should have some photos to put on the blog soon so keep an eye out.
Hope everyone is doing fine and well back home.

Peace and Regards as always,

Jim and Ness
