We have safely arrived in Zurich! It was quite the flight. It started with a lovely surprise from the La Porte Session. They had arranged for some duty free champaign and chocolate to be delivered to us. What a great way to begin. Unfortunately, the sleeping that was supposed to follow mostly didn’t. Neither one of us sleep sitting up very well.
We arrived in Zurich about 10:00 AM. That’s 2:00 AM La Porte time. We made the connections to Viking and they brought us to the hotel. We spent a little time getting oriented and then hopped the tram to the old city. It’s pretty amazing - very old with small alley sized streets zigzagging up the hill and lots of very old churches. About 7:00 PM they all decided to ring their church bells. I thought it was just a clock striking the time at first, but one by one they all began to join and rang for about 15 minutes. It was really remarkable. I caught a bit of it in the video above. Not really sure why they were ringing!
