a walk to the coop



Last Sunday I took some pictures on a walk to the nearest open grocery store in our neighborhood of Höngg.  It is called "Coop" and is the main grocery store chain in Switzerland.



The sky was the usual grey for this time of year, but the fall colors in the vinyards add some nice color.



and the grass somehow stays green year-round.



There are miles and miles of footpaths winding all through Höngg.  The neighborhood is on a hillside and most of them are very steep.

This is in the center of Höngg, called Meierhofplatz.

Another view of Meierhofplatz, from the tram stop.  It's about a 5 minute ride from here to our apartment.  The center of Zürich is a 15 minute ride in the other direction.
