Zurich: Part 2

We arrived back in Zurich late on Sunday night and it was back to school for Bluet on Monday (bless her heart!) Emily & Ben both had some work to do, so we hung out with Ilona...who was trying to tie the swings together with a paper towel here. Ha! 
Later in the afternoon, we went to the River Limmat (the river that runs through Zurich) to cool off! You can swim in the river and they also have a kiddie pool area plus a playground. The swim was super refreshing and we enjoyed having a picnic to finish up the day.

 I love this picture of the Four Amigos.
On Tuesday, Scott, Nate, Lila & I went exploring around Zurich. This is Lake Zurich and it is so lovely and picturesque. The swans were out that day and there was a little grey baby with its mom and we couldn't get enough!  

Back home, we played outside...
played Play-doh...
and played in the pool. I love these kiddos:)

On Wednesday, we got ready to head back to the U.S. and soaked up all the time we could with Emily, Ben, Bluet & Ilona. We appreciate their hospitality so much and I can't say enough how much we enjoyed our trip. So many memories!

On Thursday morning, we made our way to the airport and back to Chicago. The trip was uneventful if you don't count Lila shouting "MOM, This plane smells like SWEAT!" when we got on the plane and Nate getting air sick...TWICE. Sigh.

I'll be remembering to pack multiple changes of clothing and our own supply of air sick bags on our next international trip!
