Exploring Zurich
I packed everything up last night so that I'd be ready to leave
in the morning. After Rob's morning soccer game in Zurich, I planned
on staying in Zurich for a few nights. Then I would continue into
Austria.
Good thing I packed because Eden woke me up, knocking on the
door, ready to hit the road, Rob in the car, ready to go. Ahhh...
3 minutes later I was in the car with my stuff waking up.
Rob was excited to play the game. His team was playing the other
undefeated team in the league.
After Rob's team's 2-0 win against the other team undefeated
league team, we U-bahn'd it to the zentrum. We checked out the
shopping streets, banks, and walked around the lake. [rob & eden] [mit mir]
The night before my mother had reminded me that we had friends
in Zurich: Kate & Goffee
I tried to call them a few times with no luck. I said good-bye
to rob & eden and headed to the youth hostel. Just before
I was about to pay for a night at the youth hostel, I called again
and they offered me their couch.
I spent four days with [kate]
& [goffee] .
They're real cool people who practice the long sleeping habits
that I, too, enjoy.
They treated me to [raclette] ,
a meal of grilled cheese that is not to be missed in Switzerland.
In the interest of just finishing the Raclette they each ate a
few more helpings than I and regretted it the next morning. =)

In a remodeled mansion surrounded by vineyards the FIFA world
headquarters has interactive exhibits that teach you all about
soccer, many historical photos, and the [world
cup trophy] . The two computers from which you can view their
website also allow surfing. So I spent a little time surfing around
and writing email.
Outside I met two [guys] ,
Steve and Raffi. We enjoyed the [sunset] ,
chatted, and enlightened ourselves.

The Zurich design school was had an exhibit comparing [record covers] that was interesting, but how interesting is non-100% original design? If their is a reason, okay. But come on...
