Starting in Switzerland

So, to begin the recounting of Mike and I’s epic European adventure we return to the most expensive country I’ve ever been to, Switzerland. After finishing up in London I met up with Mike in Zürich where we spent two days, followed by two days in Geneva. It’s a good thing we didn’t plan to stay any longer because we’d have run out of money on that first leg of the journey. A hot chocolate at Starbucks cost about seven US dollars. Yup, hot chocolate $7. Yikes! Despite the cost it was beautiful.

One of the highlights was taking the train from Zürich to Geneva and seeing all the gorgeous scenery along the way. Mike hated all the clocks continually chiming at all hours but I enjoyed it.
