Since you're in Zurich can I recommend an awesome burger restaurant on Niederdorfstrasse? I think it's on north side of street around the 70-100 street number. Best burger of my life and GF agrees. Actually reasonable and less-then-expected CH prices and artsy (not faux artsy, real artsy) ambiance. The whole Niederdorf area is cheaper-eats and way fun actually. Two thoughts about Menaggio. If you find yourself in Lugano there are two direct bus routes - both local - to Mennagio. One is a Swiss post bus (that I _think is covered under your rail pass) that hits Menaggio on the way to St. Moritz. The other is a local Italian bus that runs all day and it runs direct Lugano/Menaggio (i.e. the Menaggio city bus route crosses the border into CH). Liking the pictures (the tram tracks shot - amazing). The mural/grafitti shot is terrific! BTW: There's a watch shop or two in Zurich. They're pretty good so if you're looking for a new watch...:-) Want to here all your stories. Happy trails... Like your plans man…isn’t CH gorgeous in the spring?

You know I love stories. Also, so glad you're loving Switzerland! If you get a chance, check out Lausanne, one of my favorite cities in the country. So much character for such a simple place.
