Sunday morning we walked to the National Automobile Museum in Mulhouse, the largest car museum in the world. It's an amazing collection, from early cars of the late 1800s to the more recent, and all is very well displayed. There are dozens of Bugattis (including several one-offs), beautifully restored examples of other rare marques from the inter-war era, and an extensive collection of early and modern race cars.

In the afternoon we took a train to Zurich. After settling in an apartment we walked to visit our niece Anna and her husband Steve for dinner at a nice Asian restaurant.
Monday we walked around Zurich to explore the older part of the city and the lake, and then returned to the apartment to book plans for the rest of our trip. We met Anna and Steve again for dinner, this time at an Italian place.
Today we take a train to Chamonix for a few days of hiking. Stay tuned.
