We climbed up the mountain roads on the western side of Switzerland, taking the long and scenic route back to Zurich. And scenic it was! Along with the pastel fields, green forests, and cow-filled pastures, we stumbled on a slice of absolute heaven snuggled right between the cliffs and the road!

We crossed the border back into Germany, where we decided to spend a long, slow day back to the airport. We stopped at the source of the Danube River, just a tiny trickle of water flowing through the rocks. After a few scenic stops along the way, we had another amazing lunch in Titisee, given a beautiful show of natural light and rainbows back in Switzerland, and readied ourselves for an early flight from Zurich.

What was supposed to be a quick stop to stretch our legs and grab a snack turned out to be a great experience! Despite being a last minute decision to the trip, our stop in Konstanz brought us more than we expected with its stunning architecture and beautiful lake views. We toured through a little church, admired the seductive curves of the Imperia, looked out past the lighthouse to the boats on the Bodensee, and strolled along the marina as we dreamed of hoisting the sails and catching the breeze…
Read MoreMorning in Liechtenstein
We woke high in the mountains to a hearty breakfast and a rolling fog… or were we just so high we were in the clouds? We walked the hilly streets along the Liechtenstein mountains, watching the city far below as it peeked though the gaps in the cloud cover. I took some of my favorite pictures here in the Alps before we bid our farewell, and wound our little car down the mountainside and back into Switzerland…

Leaving the city behind, we drove out to the east through the Swiss countryside. The mountains rose from incredibly green fields, and just down from the highway was a stunning fog-covered lake to explore. Just below Liechtenstein we wandered through the open air museum that was Heidi’s village!

A relaxing visit to a cafe in the Viadukt led to friendly chats with the barista and inspiration to seek out a special Zurich shop. We made our way back atop the Viadukt and along the river, where we found another Zurich tradition of enjoying the water….

Good morning Zurich! I got to cook in our little apartment kitchen before we set out to explore! We had some amazing coffee at a famous Zurich cafe, and then explored the pristine train station. After a bit of a freak out over finding something from our favorite brewery ever, we took a relaxing walk through the park along the river.
Read MoreArrival in Zurich
The beginning of our next adventure! After a celebrity chef breakfast in Heathrow we flew in to Zurich for a couple days in the city, our first time in Switzerland. We were impressed with the pristine condition of the city and the beautiful views while also being floored by the price tags. We watched some kayak polo, had spectacular chocolate, wandered the narrow alleys, and tried a local dish of ‘cheese poured over everything’!
