It was a tiring day, largely because of the lack of sleep the nights before. We went to Hiltl, a famous vegetarian (pronounced "wegetarian") place, where they handed us prosecco at 10 AM (above), which is apparently totally normal here. I hear that people keep prosecco at the office for a quick glass around 10 or 11 AM. "It really helps," said a local.
Anyway, there was a vegetarian cooking class. We fared rather well, and the food was definitely wonderful. Naturally, they gave us a project that was hard to screw up. I appreciated that.
Then we roamed Zurich West, which was empty, for several hours, then we visited a fabric store that made me very happy (below), then we had a nice aperitif and a lovely dinner, then a bizarre little romp at a club called "Hard One." The name of the club on the itinerary set us up for a whole day of innuendos, and what could we do but oblige?
It's actually the next morning now, as I was so exhausted (by the Hard One ... see? I can't help myself) I went almost straight to bed. Dashing now to check out and get to the train to Lausanne. I'm looking forward to dining in the dining car, which I've never done! The weather has cleared up significantly, so the views from the train should be lovely.
Vroom vroom!
