theducksThis photo says it all (but click through for the Zurich photoset so far). We're in Zurich, and it's Autumn. Wandered around the waterfront in the morning, periodically hopping on open/public Wifi networks using iPod touch to use email to make arrangements for the day.
Elizabeth and I then went up to Google Zurich and met up with Packrat. Had the tour of the facilities. Had lunch courtesy of Google too - apparently Packrat named the cafeteria - Milliways. Packrat also named the three tech talk areas, "Share", "And" and "Enjoy". His group's servers at EE were "Share" and "Enjoy" and the printer was "and".
Photos of the place are up here - http://picasaweb.google.com/zurich.office.images/ZurichOfficePhotos - I didn't take them, as our visit was under NDA. To the point of being suggested not to look at some of the things on the walls.
I must say, they seem to like Village living here, as Zurich doesn't actually seem very big. Maybe 5 days was a bit much, but we'll use it all for planning the rest of the trip and recovering from jet lag I suppose.
