As always, it was a long day with no sleep, but no turbulence, no major delays (despite Delta announcing that there would be a 5 hour delay which was later rescinded), and easy arrival into Zurich.
My
friend and Venice companion, Paula has a sister, Rainy, who lives in
Zurich. She met me at Arrivals with a big smile and a goodie bag of
treats. What a wonderful welcome to Switzerland!
Next, I had to share my exciting news about ALASKA! Danger on the Mushing Trail:
After a quick lunch at the Zurich Airport food court and catch-up time, we headed for the train platform right below the airport.
Rainy was very helpful in interpreting all those icons below the train info sign above: time of departure, stops, what direction the train was traveling, at which position to stand for entrance into 2nd class car, where the dining car was, etc.
And then I was off to Lucerne!
Wow, it looks like you held up pretty well after that long flight. You look no worse for the wear, and what a beautiful start to your travels.
