Back to the old house

'The other Switzerland house' as Bluet calls it, where we stayed when we first arrived, is not that far away, but because it takes a change of tram/bus to get there, we haven't been in the area for a while. This is a shame as the pirate playground there is rather splendid (actually, it might be the best playground we've found in Zurich, or maybe it is just we haven't been there for so long). So yesterday morning, while Ilona was sleeping I took Bluet there by myself. This was great, as after I had enjoyed a small coffee (and Bluet had climbed the pirate ship), I helped Bluet collect branches from around the playground (ones with leaves still attached particularly prized), and then Bluet stuck them in the mud and created a forrest (all her own idea). This was so impressive that a smaller child came and stood in it, and uprooted a few trees, which did not go down well with the architect.

Then Ilona and Emily came and found us and we went back to the new house.
