Time is passing quickly

Not a lot is happening here, besides getting ready to move back to the U.S.  Ack!  

We've scheduled the movers, the cleaners and the handover date.  All of the stuff that we wanted to sell has been picked up except for the TV, iron, and vacuum cleaner, which will hopefully be picked up next weekend.  Zürich Daddy Geek is on a plane so he can go apartment hunting this week.  I'm making an inventory of our belongings and finding new homes for our unused food and cleaning supplies.  

We've started saying our farewells.  Wednesday night we had dinner with one of ZDG's colleagues.  Friday morning I went down to see the lovely Global Librarian and the adorable Global Baby.  Friday night we had dinner with our Swiss friends to help them break in their new table (luckily none of the Geeks were the first to spill on the new tablecloth).  Last night we had another family come over for a super Raclette feast.  We're all pretty tired and sad about leaving when we think about it. 

 The last major thing we need to do (besides find a new place to live) is to decide where to go on our vacation.  Last night our dinner guests almost convinced me that going to Capetown in South Africa might be possible, but I'm still not sure the long flights (however, without jet lag) will be worth it for only a week.  Who knows where we'll end up?  I hope we decide soon!
