Today I went sightseeing in Zurich.

My friend,Beat had to go work, so I went sightseeing by myself.



Because I slept too long, it was about mid-afternoon when I arrived at the mainstation.

At first, I met Beat to eat lunch together. He invited one girl of his friends to eat together.

I ate one curry & rice and salad. It cost 2,364 yen(=26 dollar). expensive...



After lunch I started sightseeig. I planed to go to Switzerland museum to get to know well about

Switzerland. However, Once I realized how beautiful and clean this city was, I decided to walk

around mainstreets at first.



This city is really beautiful and clean :D It is beyond my expectation.

Moreover buildings are charming and every narrow streets have a nice atmosphere.

How splendid Zurich is is beyond my description.

Zurich became one of my favorite cities.



While walking, I found one strange shop. It seemed to be a hair salon, but I stayed in front of

that shop to make sure what it was. when peeping inside,I was invited by an owner to come inside.

They were drinking and he gave me one bottle of beer :D

It is a hair salon, but there are a lot of stuffs unrelated to his business lol.

I spent a really nice time there :D



One more thing I want to write about is commodity cost.

It is more expensive than I expected.


One bottle of Pepsi costs 310 yen = 3.4 dollar = 2.3 Euro

One small coffee at sturbacks costs 390yen = 4.3 dollar = 2.9 Euro

One hamburger at McDonald costs 220 yen = 2.5 dollar = 1.7 Euro

One BIGMAC set at McDolnald costs 1000 yen = 11 dollar = 7.5 Euro

How do you think about it?


I worry about if Japanese economy has already entered into the phase of defletion.

Considering about the strength of Japanese potential economy, I feel that the commodity cost in

Japan is too cheap.



Tomorrow morning I will leave here for Venezia, where I will stay 3 nights.

My health is not so good, so I decided to stay relaxed there :D

I am really satisfied with my stay in Zurich.

Thank you, Beat and his parents :D
