Day 1: Overnight in Zurich

So on the train to Zurich, apparantly there are certain cars that are "family friendly." I was unaware of this until we sat in the car that literally had a playground in the middle. It was pretty cool. We took the train to the airport and then shuttled to the hotel. I was surprised to find that I had my own room. I turned the tv on and there was a lovely welcome message saying "Hello, Mr. Leavell." Well it's the thought that counts I guess. Quick side note though. Because in german I'm Frau Leavell, that pretty much translates to Mrs., so all my plane tickets always say Mrs. Leavell on them, and it always cracks me up. But anyway, we shuttled back to the airport and did the nicely convenient overnight check-in, sparing us some extra sleep in the morning. We already had to get up at like 4:45 as it was. When we came back to the hotel I tried to go to sleep early, but it ended up being uncomfortably hot so I didn't sleep well, and then had to get up at 4:40 and quickly get ready and catch the 5 am shuttle back to the airport. We made it through security and were on the plane by 6 am.

I had fun playing with the remote control and lowering the bed up and down.
