Sunday 10 August 2003 - the rural towns of central Switzerland - Glarus, Biberbrugg SZ, Arth-Goldau, Erstfeld, Altdorf and Flüelen - the lucky arrow that missed the kid - lovely Geschnetzltes and liter of beer to end out the visit to Switzerland

Sunday 10 August 2003

Good morning! What a Street Parade yesterday. This one was hotter than the last one. Today we will visit some rural towns in Switzerland by town, particularly in the central part of the Deutschschweiz. First we go to Glarus via Ziegelbrücke, then Pfäffikon SZ, then Biberbrugg and Einsiedeln, then change trains at Arth-Goldau for Erstfeld and Altdorf. The last small town we visit is Flüelen, and then we go to Zürich for a relatively quiet(er) supper at the Brasserie Johanniter. It is my last full day in Switzerland for the year 2003, before going to Munich, Germany. Hope you will enjoy this story.

Guten Morgen! Was für eine Streetparade gestern. Dieser war heißer als der letzte. Heute werden wir stadtweise einige ländliche Städte in der Schweiz besuchen, insbesondere im zentralen Teil der Deutschschweiz. Zuerst fahren wir über Ziegelbrücke nach Glarus, dann nach Pfäffikon SZ, dann nach Biberbrugg und Einsiedeln, dann steigen wir in Arth-Goldau um nach Erstfeld und Altdorf. Die letzte kleine Stadt, die wir besuchen, ist Flüelen, und dann fahren wir nach Zürich für ein relativ ruhiges Abendessen in der Brasserie Johanniter. Es ist mein letzter ganzer Tag in der Schweiz im Jahr 2003, bevor ich nach München, Deutschland, aufbreche. Ich hoffe, Ihnen wird diese Geschichte gefallen.

Bonjour! Quelle Street Parade hier. Celui-ci était plus chaud que le précédent. Aujourd'hui, nous visiterons quelques villes rurales de Suisse par ville, en particulier dans la partie centrale de la Deutschschweiz. Nous allons d'abord à Glaris via Ziegelbrücke, puis Pfäffikon SZ, puis Biberbrugg et Einsiedeln, puis changeons de train à Arth-Goldau pour Erstfeld et Altdorf. La dernière petite ville que nous visitons est Flüelen, puis nous allons à Zürich pour un souper relativement calme à la Brasserie Johanniter. C'est mon dernier jour complet en Suisse pour l'année 2003, avant d'aller à Munich, en Allemagne. J'espère que vous apprécierez cette histoire.

Dobro jutro! Kakšna ulična parada včeraj. Tale je bil bolj vroč kot prejšnji. Danes bomo obiskali nekatera podeželska mesta v Švici po mestih, predvsem v osrednjem delu Deutschschweiza. Najprej gremo do Glarusa preko Ziegelbrücke, nato Pfäffikon SZ, potem Biberbrugg in Einsiedeln, nato prestopimo na vlak v Arth-Goldau za Erstfeld in Altdorf. Zadnje mestece, ki ga obiščemo, je Flüelen, nato pa gremo v Zürich na razmeroma mirno(er) večerjo v Brasserie Johanniter. To je moj zadnji cel dan v Švici v letu 2003, preden sem šel v München v Nemčiji. Upam, da vam bo ta zgodba všeč.

Dobro jutro! Kakva ulična parada jučer. Ovaj je bio žešći od prethodnog. Danas ćemo posjetiti neke ruralne gradove u Švicarskoj po gradovima, posebno u središnjem dijelu Deutschschweiza. Prvo idemo do Glarusa preko Ziegelbrückea, zatim Pfäffikon SZ, zatim Biberbrugg i Einsiedeln, zatim presjedamo u Arth-Goldau za Erstfeld i Altdorf. Posljednji gradić koji posjećujemo je Flüelen, a zatim idemo u Zürich na relativno mirnu(er) večeru u Brasserie Johanniter. Ovo je moj posljednji cijeli dan u Švicarskoj u 2003. godini, prije odlaska u München, Njemačka. Nadam se da ćete uživati u ovoj priči.

Buongiorno! Che Street Parade ieri. Questo era più caldo dell'ultimo. Oggi visiteremo alcune città rurali della Svizzera per città, in particolare nella parte centrale del Deutschschweiz. Prima andiamo a Glarona via Ziegelbrücke, poi Pfäffikon SZ, poi Biberbrugg e Einsiedeln, poi cambiamo treno ad Arth-Goldau per Erstfeld e Altdorf. L'ultima cittadina che visitiamo è Flüelen, e poi andiamo a Zurigo per una cena relativamente tranquilla alla Brasserie Johanniter. È il mio ultimo giorno intero in Svizzera per l'anno 2003, prima di andare a Monaco, in Germania. Spero che ti piacerà questa storia.

By the time that the other roommates returned last night, I was already asleep. I only woke up to use the bathroom. The room temperature was still hot during the night, and only at 3 AM did the temperature become comfortable. I woke up about 7:45 AM, took a shower and went to breakfast. There were not very many people in the breakfast room, so I could eat more peacefully.

After washing the dishes, I took my bag with me, and instead of walking up the steep path up to the bus stop, I walked under the Limmat bridge to a low covered foot bridge which was past the Landvogteischloss and the Baden historical museum. There was a mural showing sailors in court jester outfits, and the quote below the picture was a poem about the Narrenschiff, or the ship of fools. I was able to walk up the Grabenstrasse to Kirchweg and Mellingerstrasse, to turn right at Bruggerstrasse which led to the SBB rail station.

About 9 AM I boarded a Regional Express to Zürich HB, where I would transfer to another Regional Express to Ziegelbrücke and transfer again to a Regionalbahn for Glarus. At Zürich HB, there were a few people still in their costumes, waiting for their trains home. At least Zürich would shrink down to its usual population of about 800,000 inhabitants. My heart went out to the city workers who had to clean up the trash on the streets. They really worked hard to make Zürich look clean.

About 9:45 AM, the Regional Express, a Dosto, went on the route to Thalwil and Pfäffikon SZ, and went on to Ziegelbrücke. The train announcment went "Reisende nach Glarus sind gebeten hier umzusteigen", "Passengers for Glarus, please change to the connecting train". There would be a Regional Bahn train for Glarus and farther south to Linthal UR. Ziegelbrücke is right on the cantonal boundary in the St. Gallen canton next to Glarus, and is separated by the River Linth, which flows into Lake Zürich. Glarus is one of the original cantons, the other two being Schwyz and the other being Uri. The confederation began in 1291. Over the centuries, parts of adjacent land joined Switzerland, and the last canton, actually carved out of the northwestern part of the Canton of Bern, was Jura, in 1979.

At 10:30 AM, the train departed Ziegelbrücke for Glarus. The ride took less than 15 Minutes. Once I left the rail station, I walked south, towards Ennenda, crossing the Linth. I walked through the park next to Kirchweg. Kirchweg crossed the Linth into Ennenda. The mountains were very beautiful to see on a summer morning. At some stage, maybe when I was just six years old, so in 1978, my parents took me to see Elm in southeast Glarus. In that area, there is a point where St Gallen, Glarus and Graubünden meet. Also, one product that comes from Elm is the sparkling water. There even is a sparkling lemon drink called Elmer Citro, similar to 7 Up and Sprite. I was six years old when I first drank Elmer Citro. Somwhere I have the photo of me with a bottle of Elmer Citro.

At 11 AM, I walked back to Glarus and rode the next Regional Bahn to Ziegelbrücke and Regional Express to Pfäffikon SZ. I then changed to a train for Biberbrugg. I alighted at Biberbrugg to have a look at the rail station. It was one of the few stations on the SBB network that still had level rail crossings that people could legally cross. I suspected that Einsiedeln would be more of a modern station. Eventually years later, Biberbrugg was modernized and there is now an underground passage for pedestrians, and use of the level crossing is no longer legal.

The time came around to 12:30 PM. I boarded a train at Biberbrugg for Arth-Goldau. The train was a Regional Bahn train like the last one, and went through Rothenthurm, Sattel, Steinerberg and finally Arth-Goldau. The train arrived about 1:30 PM. The next train to Erstfeld would not arrive for another half hour, so I managed to explore the station. At Arth-Goldau, there are some cable car trains going southwest to Rigi Kulm. Rigi is just northeast of the cantonal boundary with Luzern. At 2 PM, there was an Intercity train to Erstfeld before it would climb the mountain to Göschenen, so I took it. The train went through Schwyz, Brunnen, crossed the Schwyz-Uri cantonal border at Sisikon, passed through Flüelen, Altdorf and stopped at Erstfeld. I waited on an S Bahn to take me to Altdorf. I arrived at Altdorf about 3:15 PM. The way to the city center was about a half mile long. At the end of Bahnhofstrasse was the Telldenkmal, or the William Tell monument. William Tell was a revolutionary in the Habsburg Empire, fighting for indepencence, and somehow he was forced to shoot an arrow at an apple on the top of his son's head without killing him. The son was not harmed but an apple was perforated. That incident led to eventual independence from the Habsburg Empire and in Altdorf, a monument was erected. It was a good walk from the SBB station to downtown.

There were some busses running on that afternoon, so I boarded a bus, paid a fare of about 4.50 Franken, and rode it to the Flüelen rail station. Flüelen is a lakeside resort on the southeast end of the Vierwaldstättersee, or Lake Lucerne. The lake is shared by the cantons of Uri, Schwyz, Nidwalden and Luzern. On the lakeside next to the station, the flags of all the Swiss cantons can be seen. There is also a marina with space for thirty yachts in total. I spent about twenty minutes enjoying the scenery, before taking a train to Arth-Goldau and a faster train to Zürich HB. For years I had only passed through Flüelen, and on 10th August 2003, I had finally managed to stop there and spend some time.

It was just a little past 4 PM when the train arrived at Flüelen. The train arrived about 4:45 PM in Arth-Goldau, and about 5:15 PM there would be a connecting train which would get me to Zürich HB by about 6:15 PM. At Zürich HB, I walked across the Limmat to Central, and found the Polybahn station. On Sundays the Polybahn does not operate, and I did not have any need to visit ETH Zürich. Note on 24th July 1998, I made a selfie with my striped hat between the plant science center and where the Clausiusbar is located. Instead, I went to Niederdorferstrasse and entered the Brasserie Johanniter. It was good to be back, and my last visit was Sunday afternoon on 9th August 1998. This time they did not have the "Rösti Pizza", so I made do with a local Geschnetzltes and Spätzli. I also enjoyed a full liter of Cardinal beer. The beer really tasted good, just about like a Spaten Helles or Hofbrau Original, of which I would drink much of in Munich. That was a really good meal. I think it cost around 35 Franken with tip.

After supper, it bacame about 8 PM, and I walked around before returning to Zürich HB. I think I returned to Zürich HB about 9 PM. Then I took the Regional Express train to Baden, walked to the hostel and went to my room. I listened to some music before going to sleep. I would have to check out of the hostel in the morning and go on to Munich. Will I get to ride an ICE VT, that is, a diesel-powered Deutsche Bahn ICE tilting train, or will I have to ride the same type of train that I rode on 9th August 1998, namely a locomotive pulled train, called Lokbespannter Zug, in German?

Please join me tomorrow when I make one last walk along the General Guisan Quai, ride a conventional train to Lindau and Munich, ride the U Bahn to Messegelände Ost, then a train and bus combo to Studentenstadt as in Percy Adlon's "Sugarbaby" film, and watch TV in the hotel before going to sleep. Good night!

Bitte begleiten Sie mich morgen, wenn ich einen letzten Spaziergang entlang des General Guisan Quai mache, mit einem konventionellen Zug nach Lindau und München fahre, mit der U-Bahn zum Messegelände Ost fahre und dann mit einer Zug- und Bus-Kombination nach Studentenstadt fahre, wie in Percy Adlons „Sugarbaby“-Film. und vor dem Schlafengehen im Hotel fernsehen. Gute Nacht!

S'il vous plaît, rejoignez-moi demain lorsque je ferai une dernière promenade le long du quai General Guisan, prendre un train conventionnel jusqu'à Lindau et Munich, prendre le U Bahn jusqu'à Messegelände Ost, puis un combo train et bus jusqu'à Studentenstadt comme dans le film "Sugarbaby" de Percy Adlon, et regarder la télévision à l'hôtel avant d'aller dormir. Bonne nuit!

Prosim, pridruži se mi jutri, ko se še zadnjič sprehodim po General Guisan Quai, se vozim z običajnim vlakom do Lindaua in Münchna, se vozim z U Bahnom do Messegelände Ost, nato vlakom in avtobusom do Studentenstadta kot v filmu Percyja Adlona "Sugarbaby", in gledajo televizijo v hotelu pred spanjem. Lahko noč!

Molim vas pridružite mi se sutra kada budem zadnji put šetao General Guisan Quai, vozio se konvencionalnim vlakom do Lindaua i Münchena, vozio se U Bahnom do Messegelände Ost, zatim kombinacijom vlaka i autobusa do Studentenstadta kao u filmu "Sugarbaby" Percyja Adlona, i gledati televiziju u hotelu prije spavanja. Laku noć!

Per favore, unisciti a me domani quando farò un'ultima passeggiata lungo il General Guisan Quai, prenderò un treno convenzionale per Lindau e Monaco, prenderò la U Bahn per Messegelände Ost, poi un treno e un autobus combinato per Studentenstadt come nel film "Sugarbaby" di Percy Adlon, e guardare la TV in albergo prima di andare a dormire. Buona notte!

🏰 Archaeologists find intact medieval gauntlet dated to the 14th century.

The object was found during excavations to the southeast of Kyburg Castle, located in Kyburg in the district of Pfäffikon, Switzerland.

⠀

The intact gauntlet is a four-fold finger glove worn on the right hand, which has individual iron plates stacked like scales and linked together through side rivets. The individual glove components were fixed to the interior using supplementary rivets on a leather or textile base, which in turn was stitched onto the fabric.

🏰 В Швейцарии при раскопках вблизи замка Кибург археологи нашли неповрежденную перчатку XIV века

⠀

Перчатка предназначалась для правой руки. Она состоит из отдельных железных пластин, скрепленных вместе в виде чешуи и соединенных с помощью боковых заклепок. Отдельные фрагменты перчатки были прикреплены к внутренней части с помощью заклепок на кожаной или текстильной основе, которую пришили к ткани.

Im Bus ein Mann und eine Frau mit sechs Buben. Die Frau verteilt blau glasierte Cupcakes. „Wenn es regnet, werden wir nass!“, quengelt einer der Buben. „Aber im Bad seid ihr doch sowieso nass!“, entgegnet die Frau. Dann wird besprochen, wer das Alpamare schon kennt und für wenn es der erste Besuch ist. Als der Bus an den riesigen Rutschbahnröhren vorbei fährt, kreischen die Buben. Der Mann verdreht die Augen.

Thursday 14 November 2002 - a very gray Bündner land visit - half price ice cream - The Hardhof near ZH Altstetten - supper at the Zeughauskeller

14 November 2002

EN  Hi everyone.  Twenty years ago today, I took a train from Zürich HB to Chur, past Thalwil, Pfäffikon SZ, Ziegelbrücke and Sargans.  I managed to record some Rhätorumantsch from the RTR station and buy a Rhätorumantsch newspaper.  Also a shop at the SBB rail station in Chur was having a half-off sale on ice cream, and rightly so because the weather was lousy, but not too cold.  I visited the  area, and had supper at the Zeughauskeller, close to Paradeplatz.  It was a nice end to a visit to Zürich.

DE  Hallo allerseits. Heute vor 20 Jahren fuhr ich mit dem Zug von Zürich HB nach Chur, vorbei an Thalwil, Pfäffikon SZ, Ziegelbrücke und Sargans. Ich habe es geschafft, etwas Rhätorumantsch vom RTR-Sender aufzunehmen und eine Rhätorumantsch-Zeitung zu kaufen. Auch ein Geschäft am Bahnhof SBB in Chur hat Glace zum halben Preis verkauft, und das zu Recht, denn das Wetter war mies, aber nicht zu kalt. Ich besuchte die Gegend und aß im Zeughauskeller in der Nähe des Paradeplatzes zu Abend. Es war ein schöner Abschluss eines Besuchs in Zürich.

DK  Hej allesammen. For tyve år siden i dag tog jeg et tog fra Zürich HB til Chur, forbi Thalwil, Pfäffikon SZ, Ziegelbrücke og Sargans. Det lykkedes mig at optage noget Rhätorumantsch fra RTR-stationen og købe en Rhätorumantsch-avis. Også en butik på SBB-banegården i Chur havde et halvt rabatudsalg på is, og det med rette, fordi vejret var elendigt, men ikke for koldt. Jeg besøgte området og spiste aftensmad på Zeughauskeller, tæt på Paradeplatz. Det var en dejlig afslutning på et besøg i Zürich.

SE  Hej allihopa. För tjugo år sedan idag tog jag ett tåg från Zürich HB till Chur, förbi Thalwil, Pfäffikon SZ, Ziegelbrücke och Sargans. Jag lyckades spela in lite Rhätorumantsch från RTR-stationen och köpa en Rhätorumantsch-tidning. Också en butik på SBB järnvägsstation i Chur hade halvrea på glass, och det med rätta eftersom vädret var uselt, men inte för kallt. Jag besökte området och åt middag på Zeughauskeller, nära Paradeplatz. Det var en trevlig avslutning på ett besök i Zürich.

FR  Salut tout le monde. Il y a vingt ans aujourd'hui, j'ai pris un train de Zürich HB à Coire, en passant devant Thalwil, Pfäffikon SZ, Ziegelbrücke et Sargans. J'ai réussi à enregistrer du Rhätorumantsch de la station RTR et à acheter un journal Rhätorumantsch. De plus, un magasin de la gare CFF de Coire proposait des glaces à moitié prix, et à juste titre car le temps était maussade, mais pas trop froid. J'ai visité la région et j'ai dîné au Zeughauskeller, près de la Paradeplatz. C'était une belle fin de visite à Zurich.

Guten Morgen!  Good morning! After visiting Valais, Geneva and Frauenfeld, I thought it would be good to see Graubünden once more.  It would be my second visit since September 2000, when I also visited the Principality of Liechtenstein.  I woke up about 6:30 AM, took a shower, ate breakfast downstairs, checked the train schedules on the coin operated internet terminals, and then took the bus 33 and tram 7 to Zürich HB, to catch the Intercity train to Chur.  I was on a Dosto in first class and sat on the left side.  If you are on a Dosto riding from Zürich to Chur, you should sit on the left side, so that you can see Lake Zürich after passing through Thalwil ZH, and Walensee between Ziegelbrücke GL and Walendstadt SG.  Prior to the Zimmerberg base tunnel construction, you could have a good view, particularly between Zürich-Enge and Pfäffikon SZ.  Now it is only possible between Thalwil and Pfäffikon.

Along the way I was listening to the AM frequency of DRS2 and the local FM frequency DRS3, I think, out of the Chur region.  DRS2 was playing classical music, and I remember one song on DRS3 being "Round Round" by the Sugababes, followed by "Spiegelbild" by Swiss rap group Subzonic.  I made it a point, to record off the radio from the RTR frequency, as it would be in the Rhaeto-Rumantsch language.  For those who may not know Rhaeto-Rumantsch, it is a romance language with similarities to Latin, with some words sounding like they may be from French, Italian, and it sounds a bit like Latin being spoken with a Swiss German accent.  If you have ever seen Swiss Francs, from the 10 Franc to the 1,000 Franc banknote, you might notice next to the German-language "Banknoten sind strafrechtlich geschützt", there is the Rhaeto-Rumantsch translation:  "Las bancnotas èn protetgidas dal dretg penal", which basically means "banknotes are protected by criminal law".  Some places in Graubünden will have a Rhaeto-Rumantsch name different than the German name.  For instance Disentis is called Mustér.  

The train stopped pretty much at the same stations as when I was riding to Sargans on 11th September 2000.  There was even the transfer to Glarus at Ziegelbrücke, which I would visit on Sunday 10 August 2003.  The St. Galler Oberland across the Walensee from the train tracks was very nice to see.  The weather was generally not so good that day.  Was mostly soggy and chilly, but not freezing and there was no snow.  The train stopped at Sargans and passed through Bad Ragaz before crossing the Rhine into the canton of Graubünden.  The train passed through Maienfeld, some people will know this village in Graubünden as the home of the Heidi Village, from the literature written by Swiss author Johanna Spyri.  Landquart GR was the next stop before Chur.  The train arrived in Chur about 11 AM.  It is too bad that I did not plan to take the train eastward towards Davos or Tirano.  Those are reputed to be the most scenic train rides, and one of them even has the World Heritage certification.  

I had my radio set to the RTR station to record Rhaeto-Rumantsch.  Eventually I tuned back to DRS3.  To this day it is quite remarkable to have heard the Rhaetorumantsch translation of the hymn "How great thou art" and then on DRS3 to hear an uncensored version of Warren G's "What's love got to do with it".  Later on I would hear "If I were a sailor" by Midge Ure, formerly of Ultravox.  

At the local Co-Op grocery store, I bought some Emmenthaler, some ham and bread.  It was enough to make a sandwich.  I think I bought a bottle of Sinalco, the Swiss equivalent of Orange Fanta as found in Germany and much of Europe, but not the USA.  I did some shopping, and found a Buffalo clothing and shoe store.  I also went into the Manor department store.  Both stores offered me their 32-page minicatalogs for free.  

It was about half an hour before the train to Zürich HB would depart from Chur.  I went up to the Busbahnhof to see mountains in the direction of Liechtenstein and also Heidi's small village of Maienfeld.  There was not much snow.  The weather was a bit rainy, maybe just a shower, and temperatures about 43 F / +6 C.  Kind of really meh-weather.  

I took the train back pretty much the same way as I had come earlier.  I ended up in Zürich HB, and took a line 6 tram towards Werdhölzli.  That part of Zürich, I had not previously visited, other than along the trolleybus route 32 from Altstetten and Farbhof towards Schlieren.  There is a stadium close to Hardturm where FC Zürich plays its home games.  There was no match that day, but it was good to see where they played.  I took the tram 6 to Escher Wyss Platz and transferred to the tram line 8 to Bürkliplatz to see Zürichsee.  I walked from Bürkliplatz to Bellevue, then on the Niederdorferstrasse to window shop, but not much else.  I had already eaten at the Brasserie Johanniter, so I wanted to eat somewhere else, but maybe not the Blinde Kuh, near the Höschgasse tram stop on lines 2 and 4.  My parents had recommended going to the Zeughauskeller restaurant near the Paradeplatz tram stop, so I walked across the Rudolf Brun Brücke to Rennweg where the Modissa department store was located, then down to Paradeplatz.  The sign for the Zeughauskeller, the set of yellow calligraphed letters spelling out "Zeughauskeller", was brightly lit and was opened for business.  So I went inside.

The Zeughauskeller looked really well kept up.  It has been a restaurant only since 1926, but it was a warehouse of weapons from as far back as 1487.  There is even a working built-in clock on the wall.  I ordered a Zeughauskeller house beer in a liter glass.  It was really good.  With that, I ordered the veal sausage plate, which came with potato salad.  For dessert, I had something seasonal, walnut mousse with whipped cream.  I had that with an espresso.  It was excellent.  The only other time I had walnut mousse, would have been on 5th December 2016 in the Verkehrshaus (Transit Museum) in Lucerne.  

It was a really good end to my visit to Zürich that year.  Well, I had to go back to the hostel on Mutschellenstrasse, yes, the one painted mauve.  I had to sleep, because the next train journey, with luggage, would be long, namely from Zürich HB to Stuttgart, and farther north to Nuremberg Hbf.  Please join me tomorrow, when I take the train to Stuttgart and on to Nuremberg, try to find my way to the Höfener Garten hotel, and visit to the M>1 club as suggested to me by someone.

Gute Nacht!  Good night!
