More Christmas
After having a very nice Christmas, yesterday we got a Boxing Day treat--Gretchen's sister's family arrived safely and on time for their first-ever visit to Europe. So we got to spend another day celebrating Christmas while they fought their collective jet lag. It's great to see them, although Grady has evidently decided he's not getting enough attention and is acting like a two-year-old.
Yesterday's wierdness came in the form of snow--we planned to drive to Zurich Airport but woke up to unexpected snow that was sticking on the roads. Since we don't get our winter tires until later this week, we thought we should play it safe and take the train instead. So we took the tram downhill to the station, and when we got there it was raining, not snowing. We live uphill from the station, but it's not like we live in the hills (imagine going uphill from Georgetown to the National Cathedral--we would be maybe halfway up), yet that slight elevation was enough to turn the rain to snow. By the time we got back the snow had turned back to rain and what little snow was gone. This morning it appeared to be snowing, but now it looks like rain again. Bizarro.
