The air felt clean and the water was clear. Very fresh feeling.
The architecture is beautiful.

Food:
Chocolate and cheese. What else do I need? lol! So good.

Fun Fact:
Switzerland's water is so clean you can drink out of public fountains! My friend did this and I didn't believe him until I saw two locals getting water out of decorative fountains! It was good, very fresh and cold.

We flew from Chicago, IL --->Newark, NJ--->Zurich, Switzerland!

Started the quest with some bakery items and coffee to fuel our journey to Lake Zurich!

We walked through the city on route to the lake. Very excited about the clock towers! 

The architecture and water was beautiful! I loved the cobblestone streets and how there was cafe's and shops lining the streets. The clock towers were reeling me in, I couldn't look away. ๐Ÿคฉ

I was on the hunt for chocolate the whole time. Lindt Chocolate headquarters is in Kilchberg, Switzerland and has chocolate factory tour you can go on! 


We walked through the city towards Lake Zurich.
We passed the Zurich opera house and explored some parks along the lake.
The lake water was very clean. The architecture was pretty!


At the end of the Zurich quest, we took a train to Freiburg im Breisgau.
I want to come back soon to enjoy the hiking and alps! ๐Ÿš
