Last week was a complete whirlwind of a work trip. I travelled in the UK on Monday, France on Tuesday, Switzerland on Wednesday, and the Czech Republic on Thursday, returning home on Friday. It was extremely busy and productive between spending time with our account managers, visiting customers and catching flights. I was still able to take in a few sights and try some new foods.
Here are some of the highlights:
|
After not seeing the Eiffel Tower for 3 years, it was a beautiful sight at night |
|
Zurich is a quiet but very pleasant city, especially with the amazingly clear river flowing through it |
|
View of Zurich and Zurichsee (Lake in the background) from a neat wine bar |
|
Very neat restaurant in Zurich called Runway 34, with an aerospace theme |
|
Our table at Runway 34, where I got to enjoy a delicious kangaroo steak |
|
A delicious meal at the Pilsner Urquell brewery in the Czech republic: bavarian sausages, potato dumplings and kraut |
|
The Street behind the Church |
|
Last but not least, pretzels and beer in Prague: a nice refreshment after a long day! |
Well this was quite a whirlwind trip for him (with his boss who was in town from Chicago) so not really a good one for me to join...but I couldn't have anyways since the UK Border Agency has my passport for at least the next few months.
ReplyDeleteThe kangaroo steak was delicious. It was extremely tender, looked a lot like beef but tasted different.
ReplyDeleteAs far as LA coming, that is NOT a trip she would have enjoyed... not nearly enough sleep for her liking with early AM flights every day ;)
