A few glimpses of Switzerland






One of the long distance trains at Oerlikon Station..









Chess Boards at the Community Area.. It was fun to be able to see 8-10 games being played together.. Most of the people though were regulars .. but you could occasionally catch a father teaching his 6 year old a move or two..








The less said the better... the Adult theater just opposite my hotel..
And it always had a FULL HOUSE board in the evenings when I walked back from office..










Just Outside the Lucerne Art Festival... I couldnt get the tickets for the last show before my train back to Zurich










One of the performance areas at the Zurich Steet Parade.. Its supposedly the biggest walking parade in the world. Pretty nice experience, though I didn't want to venture out much after sunset...










Looming mountains, the bluest skies, cascading clouds, towering trees, tiled rooftops, lush carpet meadows, gurgling brooks, shiny pebbles.. this has it all












On the way to Mt. Titlis , Switzerland. My
excursion on the only weekend I had..













Still a long way to reach the top... There were three different ropeways to reach the destination and the most suprising thing was that.. they had traveller's instructions written in Hindi !!

Not bad.. not to mention that the Indian National Anthem could be played alongside others at the summit.









Office Desk.... Just after office hours... so dont mind the dim lighting..











The bull outside our Office... - The building's aptly named "Toro"













An inspection done before Mallya clinched the deal... The Spyker'07











Another view of the beautiful landscape..
