1. Sydney to Munchen

Another first.

We saw this as we walked to our plane.  We weren't the only ones who noticed - it generated lot of comment!. It looked as though someone had taken a tin opener to the aircraft.

 But be reassured, this is the one we were heading for.

We caught up with family in Singapore.  Then it was a SWISS 777 to Zurich.  One good thing is that they have the option for a small and quick meal straight after takeoff, so we opted for that and slept as much as we could.  And Lindt is Swiss, so Lindt chocolates were on offer.

Due to Swiss efficiency, I didn't have time to get a pic of our small plane to Munch.  But it was an Embraer 190.

This is a similar aircraft, taken through our foggy window.

And picture perfect scenery from Zurich to Munich.

Kin Mun navigated the ticket arrangements and we found our way to Marienplatz and our hotel.  It is a Mercure.  It is clean and efficient.  We can hear bells from our hotel, but they aren't the English style!
