Let's start at the very beginning……..

although it may be more appropriate to sing "fah, a long, long way to go"……..our journey started at 5.15am when the taxi picked us up! we were on our way to Austria!! 
Yes folks, let the saga begin!! We lost count of the number of photos we took but it was getting on for 2,000!
If, you've got refreshments with you right now you'll be fine! (Oh! and be warned, this is only day 1)
I decided to change how I recorded this trip, knowing there were going to quite a few train journeys I took a water colour pad and pencils, pitt pens, glue, scissors and a few scraps of paper.
This first pic could be a spoiler so I photographed it upside down (turn it around if you must!!)

We landed in Geneva on time around 11.00 which gave us enough time to walk through to the railway station via a supermarket to get a lunch to eat on the train which left at 12.20.

Lake Leman(or L Geneva if you prefer) on one side….

…..trees and houses on the other This lady didn't mind if she was in the photo!
I had no idea that the lake was so long!

We weren't far away from the information screen

We turned away from this lake halfway along it and went up alongside Lake Neuchatel

Hubby had told me how beautiful Switzerland was but the views were breathtaking at times!

We reached Zurich at around 3.00 with around an hour and three quarters to fill so rather than stay in the station we dragged our cases across the tram lines and the river to find a proper Swiss cafe!

Oh! There were a few cakes around too!

Then it was back to station via a call in to a museum - no body seemed to mind our cases!

The roof was beautiful!. There were repairs taking place so  the other  photos  weren't so thrilling

Yes that's me! Had to pick up my case to go across some gravel

This is what I did as far as Zurich - a bit wobbly, but my version of what we saw, hubby was photographer in chief

as you can see he got my reflection here

By now the sun was shining all the time…..

…but it soon went dark and photos had to stop

We arrived in Innsbruck, Austria at 8.20 - a short walk around some corners to find Hotel Central - just time to freshen up and go to the Restaurant

Pork with Squash(Kurbis) and Parmesan risotto  - delicious!!

We were in definite need of a leg stretch before bed and only walked down a couple of short roads to see this….

Innsbruck's famous Golden Roof…and this beautiful pink building

We were about five minutes walk away from the old town and looked forward to our next day before a really good night's sleep!

As you can see we passed another chocolate factory - Milka

Thanks for looking, hope you can come back for day two! Chris
