The final day in Graz

The day that had to come, has come: the final day of our trip. Today my travelling partner exchanged me for someone else, so I could go home and prepare to start working for Eurostar again.

This morning we got out real early, already around 7h, to pick up my replacement travel partner at the station. We had a lot of fun together in Graz. After we picked her up, we took the tram to IKEA for our breakfast, which consisted of pie and coffee. We walked around a bit in the shop and noticed that the assortment was 100% the same as in Belgium, with just some minor price differences.

We went back to the city and did some sightseeing in Graz. We saw the artificial island, took the cable car up to the Schlossburg and visited the main squares and shopping areas. We finished of by a walk in the Stadtpark, after which we had a very good meal. My meal -surprise surprise- was a Wienerschnitzel. We finished of by eating one ice cream bowl with the three of us.

In mean time the moment was coming for me to return to the station and take the night train to Zürich. The train had an old Belgian wagon-lit car in it, so I decided to travel on board of it, despite the reservation price of 69 euro. Tomorrow I will travel or through France or through Germany to go home from Switzerland.
