From Luzern we headed for Zurich where we are fortunate to have some fabulous friends, Erna and Bruno who we met while learning Italian in Salerno.
After lunch we headed into the hills behind Zurich to a scenic viewpoint and then walked to another viewpoint across the crest of the mountain. Switzerland is set up for outdoor activities there are so many walking paths and bike riding tracks all through the mountains it is fabulous. From the second viewpoint we caught the funicular down the mountain and then the train into the city. Our friends showed us around the centre of Zurich and then took us to their favourite wine bar for a glass of wine and some tapas.... tough, we know!
A great day was finished off with some delicious traditional Swiss cuisine (Tisdgrill), prepared by Erna, and lovely Italian red wine.... and given that our common language is Italian we were all fairly proud that we actually had some decent conversations :-).
