Last day in Zurich

Saturday, May 17, 2014
Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
It is finally sunny today but still a bit cool ....only to go up to 16 today.. It is supposed to be much warmer starting Monday of course it's supposed to start raining back home as of tomorrow☔️☔️. Today we are meeting Beatrice and Sandro and will have supper with them at their apt. Tomorrow we need to be up early Sunday as our flight to Munich leaves at 0925
So we had a wonderful day catching up with Beatrice and Sandro. They drove us north along the Rhein or a very pretty old town called Stein am Rhine with lots of timbered buildings dating from the 1600s and rain spouts in the shapes of dragons....similar to Schaffhausen but smaller and more picturesque. The Rhine flows through the village and the opposite shore is hilly and covered with vineyards....we had Caffe and Kuchen in a cute conditorei while we caught up with life. We later drove to their apt in Hallau for Raclette and wine and grappa and caffe and strawberry tarts.....very Yummy!! They have now sold some of their property in Anchorage and bought a condo in Tucson which they will spend 4 months in winter.they are also planning to move to lake Lugano from Hallau as they have friends there and the climate is much nicer.
