I may not be my usual blogging-machine self in the foreseeable future, given that we have visitors signed up for our fold-out sofa for the next 3 weeks straight.
Since pretty much everyone we know who would ever visit us came all at once (in October to our wedding in Italy, back when we lived in Milan), we have had a relatively visitor-free first 8 months in Zurich. That has allowed us to settle in, ski a lot, and supposedly get to know our new home. Given the way I am scrambling for ideas on how to entertain this new parade of visitors, I’m not so sure I’ve accomplished that last part. Especially since our first visitors have an 8-month-old (whose impending arrival they used as an excuse to skip our wedding. The nerve!).
I have no idea how to plan around a baby. Can you take babies to my favorite restaurants? Do babies like zoos? Does it cost money to bring a baby on a tram? Do babies like beer gardens? Given that this particular baby is half Bavarian, I’m thinking that if nothing else, the beer garden will be OK.
If you happen to have any baby-friendly ideas for entertaining guests in Zurich, Dear Readers, please feel free to send them to me. Thanks in advance.
Bavarian babies love beer gardens! And those lucky ducks get on the tram for free.
I’m glad you are getting practice with baby visitors, then we can still come visit when we have one 🙂
