Today our destination is Zurich, Switzerland but before leaving beautiful Triberg we went for a walk to check out their famous waterfall. It was incredible to be there so early with hardly anyone else around, so peaceful and so beautiful.
Triberg is such a beautiful part of the world and a fitting end to our adventures in Germany, this was the last time we would touch this awesome country. However, we still had a great day ahead and left to drive through the Black Forest again.
Keith was pretty disappointed yesterday that he hadn’t found anywhere to experience Black Forest cake in the Black Forest. Thankfully we came across a restaurant that boasted the best original Black Forest cake in the region, “I’ll be the judge of that” Keith said after ordering haha.
Judging by the silence, bulging eyes and full mouth gestures of happiness, I’d say he was impressed.
Bucket item ticked we continued onto Zurich, we reached our hotel, checked in and grabbed a bus back into the city.
With no particular schedule or list of things to see we enjoyed just meandering about for once with no destination, we loved the surprise of just ‘finding’ everything. We were even lucky enough to find a group of musicians busking that were incredible.
Zurich is a really lovely city, beautiful buildings on the banks of the Limmat River.
Unfortunately we were too late to visit inside the Great Church or Grossmunster but we enjoyed walking near the river and seeing it from the outside.
The Opera House in Zurich is really impressive, it was destroyed by fire in 1890 and was rebuilt in incredible haste reopening in 1891.
We may have indulged in some local Mövenpick ice cream before heading back to the hotel.
Oh I am sooo happy you got to have Black Forrest cake in Black Forrest! That has just made my day….and finishing the day with Movenpick icecream!! Perfect end….he,he. Xx
