It seems like a lot of Swiss bloggers are quiet this week and I would hazard a guess that they are on holiday, playing in the sunshine, or taking a nap when they can because it's too hot to sleep at night. If we're not complaining about the rain, I guess we have to complain about the sun. I spent Tuesday morning by myself and Tuesday afternoon with LGG hunting down another fan. Our very important lesson learned for the day: when taking the bus home at 5 pm, avoid the side of the bus that will be facing the sun. Especially on the non-conditioned buses.
During the Euro 2008 tournament, the Migros Familypark has been open. It's set up near the China Garden at the south end of the fan mile. There are climbing structures, slides, things to bounce on and other fun things to do for kids. We decided to go down Friday evening because it would hopefully be less crowded and also there were only three more days. We had visited previously almost two weeks ago, but it was raining and the bouncy things weren't set up. Last night, a lot of Zürich was out, in their bathing suits, lounging wherever they could. LGG enjoyed jumping and sliding, and then after dinner we walked along the Zürichsee feeding the ducks bread and putting our feet in the water. It's about 70 °F -- so there's a chill when you get in, but it becomes bearable. Even though it will be crowded, we may have to go back this weekend before ZDG goes to Amsterdam Sunday night.
