I had never thought of travelling to Zurich only to take part in the Street Parade. But back in 2008 some friends wanted me to go there and I did not regret it. It is a real special parade with many friendly people in a very nice city near the Lake Zurich. The central station was also decorated and used for the party, and during night time the big station hall became one of the largest dancing clubs in the world. I can only tell people to go there and enjoy the great ambiance!<br>

... holding a pitch fork and a really hunky guy. For my boy crazy gf, she can now either make herself the perfect man when they burn, she can just throw them out with the trash! :) She can either make it sugary sweet or just a little tart, dependent on her mood! How perfect is that?? And for the gf who's gonna get the little devil - well, she calls herself Satin and since she's such a Martha Stewart, she can now share a little of herself with all her ...

... enoying ourselves. I do have to say though that we sure looked forward to reaching our little paradisical rest stop at the Kaufmann's. Switzerland is as beautiful as ever, but man has it gotten expensive. The exchange rate here is close to 1:1 right now, making a 4 dollar drink really a 4 dollar drink. Because everything is twice as expensive in Switzerland our plan is to eat half as much!

Just a day trip to see this old city. Lots of brightly painted buildings with ornate oriel windows. Most of the windows were carved with scenes or fancy designs, sometimes painted, sometimes both. Lots of fountains and statues. Found a chocolate shop and pigged out.

... happened. Not anymore. I'm caught up. We are sitting on the train to Venice. Actually, we have been sitting on it for five hours now. One more hour left... we are almost in Venezia. Our train made its way from Zurich to Lugano at the Southern Tip of Switzerland. We've gone under at least 100 tunnels and over another 100 bridges. Lugano actually felt like Italy. They speak Italian in that part of Switzerland. I just realized that now I'm ...

It has been so much fun these past 19 days! Our two families mesh so well together, and it is difficult to say goodbye. School began again today for KAB, so they all got up, got ready, said their goodbyes, and headed off to school without any ado. About an hour later MJ and her family headed out to the airport to begin their trip back home to the states. At noon KAB came home for lunch to a quiet apartment, and we began to settle back into our Zürich routines.

... I walked over to the Collegiate Church, which was built in 1692. As I walked up to the church, the first thing that caught my eye was the cemetery, off to the side. You normally don't think of a cemetery as being beautiful, but they certainly seem so over here. The interior of the church looks like it has not been restored in the 300 years since it was built. It has gold altars (both main and side) with a very plain ceiling ...
