As you may know, Sarah is working in Zurich for most of the month of March. Since she is and will be missing me so much, I decided to visit her this weekend. Unfortunately I couldn’t find a sitter for Liam for this time, so I decided to bring him along too.
As a conscientious world traveler, I try to “…do as the Romans do”, so the first thing I did when I arrived was to establish a tax collecting settlement on the shores of lake and give it the name Turicum...
Of course I am joking, that is a ridiculously literal interpretation. In reality I try to adapt to the local customs where ever I am. So the real first thing I did was to buy an apple and a crossbow, and then I headed out into the forest with Liam…
Ok, we really just met mama at the train station and had a beer:
The first day we walked around a bit, we first we needed some food, and hit the first appealing restaurant in the nähe. We went to a noodle place, and learned that Liam is crazy for Udon!, and can sometimes appear to be able use chopsticks.
we then walked the rest of the way down the hill to the lake. We walked around a while, and Liam went down for a nap. What are mama and papa to do?
It's a tough life, I know.
This is how we like our guy to wake up:
We found a playground nearby, and Liam became the abacus master
The next day we went to the zoo, Liam's favorite type of place
Hello snakes
Hello peacock
It was stork city in and around the zoo, and gave us a good opportunity to teach Liam about how he was born.
Bathtime, Liam!
But seriously, I am not sure how essential any of this information is.
Some Swiss delicassies for lunch:
They only cost an arm and two legs!
After lunch, we learned how to make electricity on a pig farm:
Hint: it involves poop
On the Monday, we took an incline to the top of a hill, and hiked
The incline lets out at this hotel.
If you ever want a $10 coffee and to feel completely out of place, this place is for you
Liam is a freak for sausage:

Great pictures! Good job on the blog, Jer. Hey, Liam, we have big sticks and sausage here too.
Nothing funnier than an ancient joke!
Note to blog readers: that bathtub is full of elephant pee.
Thanks Sarah- i really needed to know that! Interesting pictures, Liam is the best eater I think I have ever seen- as in he seems to eat and like about everything. Hope you are having a good time in Zurich. NOticed the blue skies.....
Ummm, and we also saw mama dance! Liam was enraptured and sat still almost the whole 90mins
