Fondues and Forgotten Desserts

Switzerland seems so far away now, but it was a wonderful trip and I will do my best to remember it all =)
So... I arrived in Switzerland and got on the train to go to Oerlikon, the place I would meet Sabine at. I was very surprised when five minutes later I was allready at the correct stop! It usually takes forty-five minutes from an airport to get anywhere. When I arrived at Oerlikon I asked around to find out where I could find the PriceWaterHouseCoopers Company building and the first two people couldn't speak very much english, but the third person did and their directions led me right to the door. After being in two countries (Greece and Turkey) where there was no pretending I was not a tourist I liked blending in with the people around me. The language barrier was the only thing that revealed my true identity... while I guess my camera did as well =P
One of the first things I did with Sabine was go to a pilates class haha. It was interesting because a. the instructor was speaking swiss german and b. I had never done pilates before. I found it to be a great ab work out and a good preperation for the cycling class we went to the following night.
I am very very thankful Sabine let me share her apartment while I was there. It was nice to have a fridge I could keep groceries in and a pleasure to always have someone to talk to. Food and company... there is not much else one needs for a happy life lol.
During the first weekend Sabine and I took a trip to Lutzern and I was able to see the gorgeous country side and a few cute villages along the way.
I find Zurich to be more angular and geometric then any other place I have visited. I would have said it was less colorful as well... but then I realized it was more the amounts of buildings they have.
I ate a lot of wonderful food while I was there! A real cheese fondue =) and a wonderful dessert made out of fruits that only grow in the winter season (I forget the name though =P).
Just before I left I was able to take the train to Zug and see Joanna and Louisa! Two girls I met up in the Yukon a few summers back and haven't seen since.
I have decided I will need to go back to see them for a longer period of time in the near future (meaning in the next 10 years =P). I will also have to go back sometime when it has snowed and I can go sledding... I have heard wonderful things about it!
