To round out Christy's visit we wove a couple of day trips into the last 10 days she had in Switzerland. So not long after our return from Spain we drove down to Milan for a day. Besides getting lost trying to find parking on the way in, we managed to have a good day in the city with a visit to the Duomo, lunch at Obika (the mozzarella bar across from the roof of the duomo), gelato from Peck, and a bit of shopping.

We also managed a drive up to Luzern so that Christy could see the German side of Switzerland. It was a gorgeous not too hot day and we made great time getting there and back, which left us with a good chunk of the late morning and afternoon to wander the streets of the old town. We had a delicious lunch at the restaurant at Hotel Balance (definitely a favorite!), and we were sure to stop in at Starbucks on our way home, and obviously pick up some brezels and berliner along the way!

| Liam loved the tomato gazpacho that came with James' appetizer plate - he has such a refined palate! |
 |
| Eowyn is either unamused or tired! What a patient little one she is! |

I love those last two shots - so pretty! Erfan feels that switzerland is the best place to holiday and it really is so lovely! I love that it looks like Eowyn is wearing a bonnet! I really like the picture of pensive Liam in his stroller.
