Empty Apartment

Movers have come and gone.  For the air shipment we've used up 150 kg out of 200 kg allowed, but we don't know how much volume that takes up.  Hopefully there will be room for a table and/or chairs, or more toys and books for Little Geek Girl.

The dryer is officially dead.  I thought the hauswart fixed it, or it was just a minor malfunction.  But he called the appliance people and the technician came this morning and decided to declare it dead because it was running too hot.  The apartment management will have to decide whether to repair the 16 year old dryer or replace it.  I can wash, and if there's room on the drying lines, hang dry clothes, but we'll probably have to borrow a washer/dryer over the weekend.

The apartment is empty except for the laundry detergent, which I will pick up on Friday when the cleaners come.  Now it's time to print out those cancellation letters, go visit the Notary and check things off the list.  

Good news in the free newspaper this morning.  Cafe Schöber, after being renovated for a year, has just reopened.  So we can try their world famous hot chocolate before we leave.

I think we'll still blog, but I think we'll have to change the name. It'll be the last post of this blog.

After our vacation in Paris, we'll have one full day in Zürich before we leave to play tourists, so hopefully well visit Cafe Schöber this weekend or that day.
