Photos: Zurich

May 18, 2008.

Second day in Zurich... mostly just went for a hike up the hill on the other side of town.




The view from Tim's roof-top patio. You can see the tram stop right outside, very convenient.
Kitty in the wood-worker's shop, enjoying the warmth of the light.
Tim and I, heading up the hill... rain was in the air, but it hadn't started yet.
The path
I was impressed with their control of the water. I mean, they even put that top grove in the log so you'd have a nice stream of water.
I like bridges
Even small ones
They are very much in control of this stream.
The way up
Interesting tree, the way it splits mid way up into 3 main trunks
Zurich
Lake Zurich
More of Zurich. Tim's place would be somewhere on the other side of the lake a bit.
Into the darkness
Now that's a fungi.
It's getting cloudier...
You can't see the rain here, but you can see the scale model of the solar system, with mercury on the right and the sun being the big yellowish orangeish ball in the background. It started raining quite heavily, so we took the train back down the mountain... quite convenient.
