Weekend getaway!!


Glorious sky


A glorious sunny day in June in Zürich.. I really love the fact that before shifting to Singapore we got to enjoy the best weather in Switzerland and left just before the start of foggy dull autumn days!!


Hide & Seek

I haven't seen beautiful clouds like these ever in my life!!! super white..puffy..soft..as if God lives in these clouds!!!

We drove to Rapperswill that day .. Here is another post I did of the quaint place!! This was our favorite weekend spot!!  I love the   cute little shops in the village which sold folk art and craft!!

Rapperswil on Lake Zürich

rapperswil

Located on Lake Zürich , Rapperswil is a quaint little place with castle, cozy cafes, walks and tiny shops selling toys and other decorative items which are made locally..It was our  perfect getaway almost every week on a sunny summery day. We usually drove there via beautiful .. its a understatement..the villages are extremely beautiful ..with the blue snow capped alps as the backdrop.. the blue lake spread across..It is so wonderful to drive in Switzerland!!

It is possible to take a boat ride if you have the time,patience(lol) to spend 2-4 hours on the boat or if want to see all the small towns on the Lake Zurich ..!!  It is highly recommended if you are new or tourist in Zurich because it is extremely scenic and has many stops in between where you can stop and enjoy that place ...

escaping the summer heat

I had a very busy week and hoping to start with Christmas projects next week!! 
Have a nice weekend!!!
