Zurich

On Sunday we left our cruise ship/barge and travelled by train to Zurich. I loved this creation which greeted us at the train station.







Zurich is a beautiful city and we were lucky to be staying in the old part of town surrounded by restaurants and just a short distance from the river.









Europe has such a sense of pride in their heritage.









I was fortunate to be in Zurich when they had a Rodin sculpture exhibition which had come from the Royal Academy in London. His "Gates of Hell" is a permanent fixture outside the Kusthaus where the exhibition was held - I was in seventh heaven as we hadn't had the chance to visit many art galleries.
