Home Sweet Home

Saturday was one last, long adventure as we said farewell to Basel and to our summer of fun.  We took a train to Zurich and arrived around lunch time.  The train was an "up and down train" that had one car dedicated to children - complete with a slide and play space.  What a way to travel!  Once we arrived in Zurich, we wandered the city a bit and then made our way to the airport.  The flight home was 8 hours and the kids were amazing.  They even rallied at Logan when they had to walk, since we'd checked the stroller (which was impressive, considering it was 2 a.m. Basel time and they'd both been in a deep sleep on the plane).

That about sums it up!

On the way to the bus stop, making our way to the SBB.

The Tikki Park train car!

Slide and boat on the train.  Amazing. 

Bahnhofstrasse - the main street in Zurich for window shopping and people watching.

The Zurich Hauptbahnhof.

More Zurich.

We found a large toy store and the kids were psyched.

Josh was brave this time and took a ride down the dragon slide. 

Josh says, "Ka-chow!"

Lake Zurich.

Cool fountain by the lake. 

Sporting new hats at the airport.

Layla was a great helper in the airport!

Josh fell asleep within 5 minutes of take off.
Layla was happy to play Mickey Mouse video games. 

Finally back in Boston and still energetic enough for silly faces!

Summer is over but the adventures are not.  Can't wait to see what's in store for us next!
