Texans meet Switzerland

Scott and I had wanted to visit Switzerland since we arrived Europe, but there was always other destinations to go to.  We decided to take a quick weekend trip to Zurich to see what it was like and hoped quietly for nothing more than some snow.  There were several highlights to the trip:

1.  The flight and hotel for both of us was FREE!  I love that!
2.  We arrived Friday night, ate dinner, and then slept for almost 12 hours.  I love sleep.
3.  We ventured out and saw the beautiful old town Zurich.  Cobblestone streets, Alps in the near distance,
      and beautiful rolling hills.  Amazing and just as we had imagined.
4.  We ate some delicious food and drank enough beer to make up for missing the night before.
5.  We woke up Sunday morning to SNOW!  Beautiful and giant flakes of snow covered everything.  The
      beautiful hilly city, was now one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen.
6.  Realizing we hadn't eaten the famous Swiss chocolate since we arrived, we stopped at the airport
     specialy chocolate shop and indulged.  No wonder it is famous.  It was delicious.

Zurich ended up being a wonderful weekend adventure that I wouldn't trade for the world.
