Where to Switzerland - Day 13 + Day 14

Our last two days in the beautiful country of Switzerland.

Of course, we woke up in Italy at Forestis, but it was our check-out day. After one last amazing breakfast downstairs in the dining area and in our beloved booth, we made sure we had everything packed and check-out of an unforgettable stay.

We hadn't been in Zurich since the day we landed in Switzerland, immediately picking up our rental car and driving on to Lucerne and Iseltwald. Now, we were going to have a short day-and-a-half there - which I know is not nearly enough.

It was about a five hour drive from Forestis to Zurich. We reached our AirBnb along Niederdorfstrasse around 3pm, leaving us plenty of time to drop off our bags and explore a little of the city. We window-shopped along Niederdorfstrasse and then the famous Bahnhofstrasse.

I found a sushi restaurant, called Nooch, that had swings for the seats, so that is where I directed us for dinner.

The next morning, we woke up bright and early to have a full last day. There was a lot on our list but we decided to take it slow, doing a lot of walking and sightseeing. My main objective was to visit the Oktoberfest festivities happening nearby and get a pint of German beer in celebration, which we succeeded in checking off.

We also did a little shopping, then found a pho place for a late lunch. The weather was beautiful, so it made for a perfect day to people watch while strolling around the city. My favorite spot was along the Limmat, where we could sit and bask in both the view of the Grossmunster church and the Fraumunster church across the river. At the end of the day, that is where we watched the sunset, reminiscing on such an unforgettable trip.
