2Background the alps They have too many alps I

3This is also the view of the alps If you see

mountains
4View of Zurich from the Uetliberg (2700 feet
above sea level) Yes, I went hiking just to get
this picture... Just for you guys
5Ana and me at 2700 ft above sea level and were
playing the swing. Never too old for the swing!
6I think this is the Zurich Sea (I need to ask
Dr.Messing about this) Okay, they have too many
mountains, and lakes and they all look a like
7This is Oerlikon Market. Oerlikon is an area
near my apartment. Oerlikon Market is like a
farmers market, every Wednesday and Saturday
morning (close at noon). They also have this kind
of market at different places in different days.
8This is my favorite cheese place (Swiss-German
Cäshüttli, in German Käserei) at the Oerlikon
Market. I like this place because they are really
friendly even though I speak in tremendous (
broken) German, well of course most of the time I
also use body language. They speak in
Swiss-German, really hard to understand them
9Birds!!!!
This is also at Oerlikon Market, the Metzgerei
(both the same in Swiss-German and German, beside
the pronunciation is a little different. They
sell an extremely expensive eggs, freeland eggs.
It means the chickens are not in the cages,
running free. About 5/10 eggs.
10Cant get enough with the laundry. Introducing
Ana (Spain), Jessie (China-Canada)
11I promised SOMEBODY I will get picture of hanging
underwear, but I cant get it. People actually
stop hanging their underwear. Perhaps they had
some warnings about Asian girl taking pictures of
the hanging underwears. I hope the socks count.
I need to tell this guy to get some colorful
socks!!!!
12This is the Swiss bank. They said thats where
they keep all the gold.
13The famous Bahnhofstrasse, the most expensive
street in the world.
14This is also a part of Bahnhofstrasse. They have
Christmas Market for 1 whole month, they have
small kiosks selling different items, food,
drinks, etc. Oh thats also McDonalds. I think
its the most expensive McD I have ever been, 1
meal is 12!!! They dont have 1 menu!!
15Swarovski crystal Christmas tree inside the main
train station, in the middle of the Christmas
market. Yes, all the decorations are made of
Swarovski crystals!!!!
16This is also a part of christmas market inside
the main train station. It looks like a carnaval
inside the building.
17My first banana cake ? Oops.. I forgot they use
degree Celsius instead of Fahrenheit!!!
18I have learned my lesson!!! Well at least my
roommates and neighbors think my food are eatable.
19Thank you for the birthday card!!! I know my
birthday will be next week, but Libby gave me the
permission to open it earlier. It has made my
day!! Ruffin said he will get me
chicken!!!! You guys need to get online more
often! Uh oh Nevin, hows the induction?
