delicious dippage

today we managed to only miss the train twice.. quite a feat for us. when we finally made it to st. gallen we hopped the first train to zurich! on the way it naturally started raining. the one type of weather we hadn't planned on. so we get there and get lost [shocking i know, seeing as we are both navigational geniuses] and then have to go back and re-navigate to the city. the main boulevard was pretty awesome. especially since there were christmas decorations up already! also very cool was all the swans!



for some reason i have never really thought about swans in the wild so it surprised me to see them swimming around the river [in the cold rain] like it was normal. they were pretty awesome either way. we walked around and saw churches, jen bought a cool watch [that is currently not working] and then heaven happened. in the form of fondue.



now this was my first experience with fondue. we started off with some amazing salads and fabulous garlic bread. then the grand finale came. a massive basket of bread cubes and this yummy little pot of boiling cheeses/cherry brandy. we also got a side of pears to mix up the tastes a little. it was freaking amazing and i would eat it everyday if it was available to me! i want more soooo bad! zurich was basically awesome. i reallly want to go back when the weather isn't blah.. they had mexican restaurants, asian take-away places and of course lots of italian! next time we will have to try some of the other places in the old towne!
