I spent today exploring the city and planning my trip down to St. Moritz. The weather is quite warm here, it was about 10 degrees during the day. This morning I went for a run along the lake- it was quite pleasant to be able to run without bundling up. I think I will be much fitter when I return home from this trip, both from the good weather for running and the high cost of food! A cheese sandwich at our hostel is 7 Francs (about $8.50 Canadian), quite the difference from the 25 cent Cambodian chesse sandwiches!
In the afternoon, I wandered around and caught a free walking tour of the city. The volunteer guide was excellent. Here is a picture of the morning fog clearning over the Limmat river, because no one reads blogs without pictures (not that I'm expecting huge readership).
I'm going to have to get used to being by myself, at least for the next week until I move into more permanant living arrangements and start working. I've never actually travelled alone before, so this will be a good experience for me. I'm also still wrapping my head around the fact that I won't be back home for 3 1/2 months!
