Go to the calendar and "Add New Event" in the lower right hand corner. (or click here.)
Absolutely fantastic! We'll be heading down there again this year, probably Tuesday night.

A new area for bears and wolves has been added to the zoo and this part opened last year. sorry Cyrus - that was pretty off-topic.
and from the station in Goldau, you can go by train to Lucern. (on-topic now??)

Meeting in Zürich HB at fiveish, proceeding to Thalwil to pick up a few more folks and then on to Luzern. The plan is to stay for a few hours and come back... mind you, I remember how well the same plan worked last year... |
