Zürich, Switzerland. April 1997.

The other main destination on my European trip was the ACM Computers & Communications Security conference (CCS). While in Zürich, I found some time to wander around this beautiful (but extremely expensive) city.

Zürichsea (the lake around which the city is built) is an impressive sight. I grabbed a sandwich and had lunch on its shore. You can also take a pretty boat tour around the lake (cool chairs on the boat).

The most frequently occuring word on Zürich's signs must be verbot (forbidden).

At the conference, I hung out with Fabian Monrose and Sabine French. We found a fantastic Italian place for dinner one night.

For the last night of the conference, we ate dinner at a fancy place on top of a hill overlooking the city. The Swiss built a tower on top of the hill (that you just climbed up), so you can get a truly impressive view.
