Clean, well organized, expensive, pretty, historic. The overall tone used to be pretty staid, now there's a popular club area - not quite like Amsterdam's red light district, but a change from the sterotypical buttoned down tightass mood that used to prevail. Expect to pay a lot for lodging.

To see the main areas of interest in they city you would probably be able to cover it in a day or so. I think there are a couple of museums of interest, but I didn't go see them. Neat day trips around Zurich, to little villages such as Raperswil. Also wished I had been there in the summer to go on a lake cruise. But as said earlier, a day should be enough to cover the must-sees.

I've visited your web site and know you love photography. I think you will find Zurich wonderful from that standpoint. If you are a Marc Chagall fan (or even if you're not) be sure to visit the Fraumunster Church, where he did some spectacular windows. We also enjoyed walking around Lake Zurich.<BR><BR>j

Ever since I got the digital camera I feel that I can take pics of anything I want. I am sure that I look like some kinda tourist nut when I shoot a pic of my plate of food in a restaurant or apple at a fruit stand. I am going tp Paris in a few days and think maybe I should start a photo essay.... What should the theme be? The bugs of Europe? Umbrella of the western world? Baguettes of Paris? Hmmm<BR><BR>Ooooops this was a Zurich question that I originally asked, so what about Zurich??? Do they have bugs and baguettes there?

I had forgotten about the painted cows and I do have a picture of one. <BR><BR>I have a picture of a manhole cover I took in Rhodes. Also have pix of seagulls from Nassau; Arbroath, Scotland; a number of places here in California; also Pelicans (which I love) on the wharf in Santa Cruz, CA and several spots in Mexico.<BR><BR>I'm not a fan of Aunt Sophie in front of the Eiffel Tower, etc.<BR><BR>I also have a shot of a tiger cat sitting arrogantly near a restaurant in the Plaka in Athens that I love.<BR><BR>Love my pictures and put them in albums soon after I return home when things are still fresh in my mind. <BR><BR>Again, I know you'll find Zurich very "photogenic."<BR><BR>j
