Day 39 - Zurich (we got wet.... Again)

Ok began today at 6:30 and left at 8:00 for the 8:20 bus. My breakfast this morning included 3 bowls of cereal and 2 orange juices (don't judge me I was hungry). We got on the 8:20 bus and then when we arrived at the station mum was left with the bags and a boys only shopping trip happened!!! We bought all the CHOCOLATE!!!!! Ha joking I don't think we've finished our London chocolate yet. We actually bought lunch.... Have a guess what it was!!!!!! Ham rolls (ha tricked you... There wasn't any cheese today) 

Anyway caught train from Grindelwald to Zurich while wishing the Swiss alps goodbye. I'm not sure I'll be back for a while. We successfully got three connections and arrived in Zurich at one o'clock. We walked to the lake and bought a big bottle of lemon juice to drink along the way because it was very hot. 

At the lake we saw a big platform where people (youngish) were jumping into the lake, it was about 10m off the lake. Anyway next we walked through the old town back to the station where we caught another train out to tonight's youth hostel. 

We sat at the hostel for a while until we got our room and then immediately when for a swim in the nearby lake. The water was fantastic and we swam for about half an hour. Then we went home and lay down. A few hours later we went out to dinner and while we went off to get cash it poured down rain and we got sopping. Ha good fun!!! Dinner was kebabs which was ok. Flying again tomorrow! 

No free wifi in Singapore so I probably won't be uploading the last posts till I'm home.
