FINALLY! We have made it to Zurich! After what seemed like the never ending day of travel we have just a 45 minute train ride to Lucern. Before we get on that train we want to take a few minutes and personally thank some very important people who's time and financial contribution made this trip possible for us to defend his 2007 FILA world title!
