In Zurich it's spring

Work has brought me to Zurich, where it's a balmy 10C and blossoms are on the trees.  Got in early yesterday and as usual was miserable from lack of sleep and resetting my body clock.  Managed to pick up the few gifts for the kiddies I needed to get and make it back to the hotel before succumbing to sleep between 5 and 6.  Sunday was a beautiful day.  We watched Canada win gold in the hockey final; first two periods in the train station bar (where our cheering was not appreciated) and then we made our way to a pub that was "hosting" hockey fans of all stripes (although I would say there were more screens tuned in to soccer matches).  About 20 Canadian fans were thoroughly overjoyed at the win - many high fives were exchanged.  Then walked down to the lake to enjoy the remainder of the afternoon.
The lake with mountains in the distance.
