Off we Go! Zurich: Part 1

On June 12th, we said good-bye to our kitties and left our house for a big adventure! We drove to Chicago and spent the night near the airport (it was way cheaper to fly straight from Chicago!) The next day, we took off for Zurich, Switzerland! Lea even got to come with us:)
We left Chicago at 3:00 PM CST and landed in Zurich around 11:30 PM CST (6:30 AM Switzerland time), so basically we lost a night, but it was all worth it! Emily was there to meet us at the airport and we got our first glimpse of Zurich. It is very beautiful!
We were so excited to see Ilona and Ben who were waiting for us (Bluet was at school)! Lila and Ilona quickly got to work on the swings.
That afternoon, Bluet had a dress rehearsal for her dance recital, so Emily, Ilona, Lila & I tagged along. Her song was about fish, and she was excited about the sparkly scales on the costume!
We were all so tired that night but so thankful to be with our people! The kids & I were so sleepy the next morning, but Scott got up and played puzzles with Ilona while we worked to shake the jet lag.
Jet Lag. In a picture. Ha!
More to come!
