Introduction to Zurich, Switzerland


Introduction to Zurich, Switzerland


This year marks the 10th anniversary of San Francisco and Zürich being sister cities, and Zürich invites everyone to come visit and help them celebrate.  Zürich offers two thousand years of history and culture, plus culinary delights in open-air restaurants (my favorite is the Bauschanzli beer garden where you select and cook your own sausages).  The locals jump in the Lake Zürich water for a swim during their lunch break, then go back to work.  You can join them, but you won't have to go back to work.  Or you can bike along the River Limmat.  Right now you can participate in the Zurich Getaway contest to win a trip for two from SF to Zurich on fabulous SWISS International Air Lines (this is the airline that has a special place in my heart for handing out delicious Swiss milk chocolate as a snack!).  Sightseeing and three nights in a five-star hotel included.  Check it out.
