I had never thought of travelling to Zurich only to take part in the Street Parade. But back in 2008 some friends wanted me to go there and I did not regret it. It is a real special parade with many friendly people in a very nice city near the Lake Zurich. The central station was also decorated and used for the party, and during night time the big station hall became one of the largest dancing clubs in the world. I can only tell people to go there and enjoy the great ambiance!<br>

... I finally uploaded some new pics from Köln and Lörrach to facebook... I really need to go to sleep, since I have another long (great) day tomorrow, but yeah, I went with Sebastian to Zürich today. :)<br><br>It was quite what I expected, except WAY richer than I ...

19th June - Lucerne to Zurich<br> The weather today was pretty horrible. As we walked down from the hostel in Lucerne to the train station it started raining hard and it didn't really let up all day. In Zurich we tried to wait it out a bit by having a coffee but eventually we had to go out in it and get wet because the hostel reception closed in the middle of the day. We decided that we would try see ...

Just a day trip to see this old city. Lots of brightly painted buildings with ornate oriel windows. Most of the windows were carved with scenes or fancy designs, sometimes painted, sometimes both. Lots of fountains and statues. Found a chocolate shop and pigged out.

... on saying we will or do not, etc) Oh, I almost forgot, everyone might be wondering about the chocolate, yes there is a lot of chocolate shops here that look incredible and smell amazing when you enter, the only problem with them is that you cant decide what to try or which chocolate shop to go to. And no lindt chocolates that I see save for a few bars here and there at stores. I was interested in taking a tour in Klistchberg but ...

... and what looks to be a very lovely Switzerland in general. Unfortunately it was on business, and since our Swiss hosts seemed to work the ungodly hours of 8am to 6pm on each of the three days we were there, Drake (my boss) and I didn't get to see too much of it save the view of the alps buzzing by on approach to land. Still, there was ...

... in the day also Gabriel, the Slovakian guy, and from him came the idea to go to a trance/goa party by the lake about 40 minutes walk from Zürich. The party was really great, a lot of people, kind of hippies...and maybe for the alcohol or maybe for the smoke I really enjoyed the party! Sadly around 1.00 am started to rain and we got quite soaked, plus at 2.00 am the party was over so we had to walk under the ...

8/30/99 Monday<br><br><br><br>Davos to LucerneWe departed for Lucerne around 7:35 am. The weather was cool and clear, as usual, with fog hovering around the mountain tops. The scenery on our way to Lucerne was breathtaking (I use that word a lot, but it really is just that). I never tire of looking at it. Traveling the winding roads through the mountains, every bend brings another incredible view. It is true...you HAVE to see it to ...
