Zurich


June 24-26

After 3 intensive weeks in Israel, we took a short break in Zurich before going on the road to the Balkans. Our dear friend Matthias and his partner Dani were there to greet us at the airport and took care of us in every possible way, including a surprise helicopter ride around the lakes in the region. It was thrilling and incredibly beautiful, also a little scary to fly over dense fog and clouds surrounded by high mountains. It was a treat to be able to see from above the gorgeous combination of lush pasture lands and pine forests, dotted here and there by charming villages and isolated farmhouses.

After picking up our car, a very futuristic Citroen C4, we started on our drive into Italy towards Venice, where we will spend 3 days absorbing the Biennale.
