Geneva, Bern/Belp & Zurich/Kloten – Wednesday 22nd May 2019 (Mark Paulin)

From here getting to Zurich would normally be a formality. No sooner than I turned onto the Motorway North the traffic ground to a crawl. This continued as stop and start for the next 70 kms by which time 3 hours had passed and I was still only halfway. So I stopped for a while at a service area and finally got back on the road just after 1900. By now the accident which I subsequently found out was nearly in Zurich has been cleared and although slow in parts I did finally get to the Hotel at 1945! After checking in I did a full circuit of the field.
