We arrived at Zurich airport at 6:45 a.m. local time (12:45 a.m. Eastern time).

Veronica met us at the airport with our rental vehicle, a Citroen Picasso. We then drove to her home in Fehraltorf. Veronica returned via train because the van was loaded. This is us with the van parked at Veronica's.

_02A2000 After some down time at Veronica's and a short snooze, we took the train into Zurich later in the afternoon. Our first stop was at the Bellevue Christmas Market, just as it was getting dark. Here are a couple images from that market.

This is the famous Singing Christmas Tree in Zurich.

Then it was back on the train and a late dinner and Amarone at Veronica's.
