First Day in Switzerland (Dec. 1)

I apologize AGAIN for not blogging in a while. We've been so busy… I know… not very good excuse…

But anyway. Our first day in Switzerland was wonderful. It was so nice to be back in the city and see Brigitt (mom's cousin) again! We walked around in the city, it was supposed to be foggy but it turned out to be wonderful and sunny. 
We had Maroni - roasted chestnuts… :D They are as wonderful as ever.




All the shops are decorated for the season.



Beautiful narrow streets

The cuckoo clock shop

The Grossmunster.


A small christmas market in Zurich. 

 Later we went to Meilen, where mom's other cousin and his family live. We went for a walk by the vineyards...
 The sheep graze in the vineyards!
 And then we went to the Christmas market...
Traditional Swiss Christmas baking is always for sale..


As are supplies for making advent wreaths…
