Been a busy, but great week. Sorry for lack of postings, but work is getting in the way.
Here's a few pics of the last week. . . . We found a cool little fish and chip cafe, in the uber-trendy part of town, and I think the guys serving were somewhat stoned. We're usually left feeling broke when eating out, but this time when handing over 50 CHF to pay, Frith was given 42 CHF back. After receiving a confused glance from Frith, the stoned server went back to his till and handed him another 5 CHF! Later on, the same guy tried to pour beer for the kids! We'll go back again ;-) And they've opened a fairly new cycle route that now easily connects our part of town via a renovated viaduct (full of new markets, cafes, etc), to this vibrant, 'alternative' part of town, which is cool for us! More 3 CHF fish and chip suppers, please! The pic of Bea at the bottom is by Zurich's tallest building, the Prime Tower . . . Not exactly the empire state building, but has become a bit of a landmark and sits in the middle of this developing quarter of the city.
We managed to get some lake swimming in last weekend at Küsnacht badi (further down the lake), and another trip to the Theatre Spektakel Saturday night for some more free street theater— but the three-week long festival is now over. The pic of Bea late at night is at Theatre Spektakel with his kite!
