You really know your way around Zurich, Tony. Beer next time? 😀

I'd be happy to meet you! Since I moved to Portugal, I travelled to Zurich at least once a year prior to COVID, and I am itching to return.

Don’t miss the Chagall stained glasses in the Fraumunster church up the street - they are quite memorable and for me the best bang for your buck in Zurich. Pretty much everything else including the watches I found to be quite expensive, even though of course the chocolate is very worthwhile too.

Portugal is a good choice. Lots of potential and still affordable. Where in Portugal are you?

Agreed. I loved Portugal when I traveled there a few years ago, especially Porto and the Douro Valley wine region. Thought seriously about it as a retirement destination.

I was in Lisbon until recently, but now I am in a small town near the eastern border.

I used to love to go to flea markets. The horological trips would seek them out as well. I considered looking for one last June when I was in Swizerland, but the confrence was on the weekend and my time was limited. What extra time I had I spent in Neuchâtel.
On the other hand I have done well with flea bay in the last couple of months. 4 Omega watches and two movements, not a bad haul.
Sometime I should look to see more of Zurich than the airport and the train station.
