The little towns on the way up the valley are so beautiful, almost clichés.

train journey

Swiss trains, very efficient. Our train journey wasn’t terribly exciting until we passed through Visp, and began climbing up the valley towards Zermatt. The hills got steeper – steadily turning into mountains, then glimpses of snowy peaks, and that clear mountain air.
Stocking up

This Läderach shop was in Zurich Railway Station, and though it’s only one of many in the chain, it’s still really delicious chocolate.
We had a long train journey ahead of us, so stocking up was mandatory!
too much chocolate?

Is there such a thing? Not in Switzerland, it seems 🙂
Läderach was pretty good chocolate, and to save you the maths, the pralines work out at about aud$130/kg. About par.
Traditional
A really major food group

We love to eat. Zurich obliged.
I honestly can’t remember where this was – maybe the Sprüngli Café?
Above Zurich

It’s a compact city, and this little park on a hillside in the old town is a great place to see a fair bit of Zurich at once.

Getting over jetlag is never easy, but a walk around beautiful Zurich on a sunny afternoon was just the ticket.
then I picked some mushrooms, does this look edible to you?
