Well, I didn’t do much today, I had plans, but since closing your stores and museums is Germany’s national sport, I spent they day pretty much just walking around shops, and going in shops. It was mostly museums that were closed, but I didn’t actually have anything big planned, I really just wanted to go … More A Shopping Day?

Well, I just didn’t have enough fun the last time I went to Nuremberg, so I’m back again! (Known as Nürnberg in Germany.) The lovely gothic town in northern Bavaria/Eastern Franconia which I’m sure you’re very familiar with. I didn’t have much time to do stuff today, and the time I did have was spent … More That -berg Again

Well, as I said I am back in Bavaria, in a city with a unique secret. The buildings, many of them, or possibly even all of them with the wall included contains tens of thousands of tons of diamonds – over 70 thousand tons! Many of the buildings that aren’t painted sparkle in the sun … More The City Of Diamonds

…And by saddle I mean the best state in Germany – Bavaria! So basically the story of today was trains, trains and more trains. Some of my plans didn’t work out for my next intended stops, due to poor location, and very high prices so I stayed up very very late last night deciding what … More Back In The Saddle

Well I didn’t do much today except trick a billionaire into giving me every single dollar he has, which gave me barely enough to afford a train ticket to the next town. (Even the man in the ticket office agreed that the trains in Switzerland are incredibly expensive when I expressed shock at the price.) … More Valley Town, Switzerlandville

I don’t get it. The whole day the sky has been 99% clear. Except around the Matterhorn. All day today, and all day yesterday the sky is clear, and sunny, and it’s hot out. Except there’s just clouds always hovering around the top of the Matterhorn masking it. There was only 1 or 2 very, … More The Matterhorn!

Well after a pretty late start I finally left Zürich, and traveled to the opposite end of the country to the southern tip of Switzerland – to the tiny town of Zermatt. It’s a really cool little Alpine village. It’s a quite beautiful, and very mountainy, foresty, … Alpine themed town, without much else going … More Jon’s Journey Through Switzerland?

The largest waterfall in Europe! I took a train north to the city of Neuhausen am Rhein to see it, quite near the border with Germany. Known as the Rheinfall here in Switzerland. Here it is, behold its glory! PRETTY NEAT HUH!? Here’s some facts: 150 meters wide, 23 meters tall, 13 meters deep, water … More The Largest Waterfall In Europe

This’ll be a short one… more or less. I took a train to the top of Uetliberg, a large mountain overlooking the land all around which was cool. Very weirdly when I got there up to the top of the mountain and on top of the observation tower I heard lots and lots of really … More More Zürich
