Arrival to Switzerland!

After a 2+ hour slow crawl through rush hour Nairobi traffic and a 8 hour crowded overnight flight to Zurich we made it to Switzerland at 6:30am in the morning. Somehow we found the energy to do a bit of sightseeing in town before heading out to the countryside. We loved the super smooth roads that got us to our farm stay about 30 minutes south of Lucerne. The place is quite comfortable, we are staying on the top floor of a farm house and the family was very friendly as they showed us their cows.
the troops were none too happy with me on the choice
to take the train to our rental car pick-up instead of a taxi!
things got better after some lunch!
Uncle Kenny was missed!
Zurich
took a short river boat ride

for four nights we are staying on a farm in the Alps

  1. What a difference Switzerland must be from Kenya! Talk about culture shock. Have a great trip back to the States. Your adventures have been wonderful to read.

  2. Thanks Ed! Yes, its amazing the differences between the two countries.. roads, drinking water, safety. We loved Kenya, but it is nice to have developed countries services again...
