These things caught my eye:



Cupboard carvings.



Lacy linens.


Rustic restaurants.



Breakfast buns.


Funky fountains.



Cozy corners.



Decorative doors.



Gorgeous gastronomy.



Quaint Kitsch.



Ancient architecture.



My main man.

Photo Tour of Switzerland


Arrive Zurich, Switzerland
8:05 AM.


"Oh my gosh, you guys!
Are you here, too??"


Zurich Hauptbahnhof.

Hannah freaks.


Mack fades.


"You won't believe this train ride."


Two hours of alpine villages ...


Swiss meadows and lakes before we arrive in Luzern.



Right across from the train station is the Chapel Bridge, built in the 1300s. Paintings representing Christ line the ceiling. The oldest part of town is on the other side.



"Come on!"


The architecture is my favorite part.


How old do you think that roof is?



We can't give in to jet lag—
Keep walking!


The whole city of Luzern is an art museum.



"Are we there yet?"


Süsse Träume!

Guest Post: Tuesday Surprise


(TravelinOma was hijacked today by a ten-year-old grand
who is more computer savvy than any Oma I know!
The photos, download and post took her about 5 minutes!)

Our mom is in Switzerland (in case Oma didn't tell you).
She made us a countdown chain.
Today, we cut off the lowest chain; the one that said Tuesday.


We found this message:


So we looked where the Play-Doh resides.


And we found the CD.


Highlights are:
I Get Around - Beach Boys
Splish-Splash - Bobby Darin
The Lion Sleeps Tonight - The Tokens
Rockin' Robin - Bobby Day
Blueberry Hill - Fats Domino

Bye!
