What are the best things to do in Switzerland?

Question

acitivities, fairs, parades, anything.

Answer 1

Switzerland has some really goofy holidays. On the third Monday in April in Zurich we celebrate Sechselauten--we get ONLY the afternoon off to go to town for a parade and the burning of the Boogg. He's a giant snowman--full of firecrackers--and the idea is if he burns up quickly the winter will stay away, but if he burns up slowly, the winter will be long. (It seems to be accurate!) The holiday CELEBRATES the fact that longer daylight hours mean more time for work! (Sechselauten means six o'clock bells, ie the "get off work" bells ring at six instead of five.)

Anyway I for one can't wait!

Some people seem to think skiing is fun too.
