On our return trip from India, we had an 8 hour layover in Zurich. On our inbound flight we discovered the treasure trove of duty free shops and resturants that exist at Zurich. We knew that we would have plenty to do to entertain ourselves (at least the adults) We landed in the E terminal…
It was the dreaded 5:30 pm flight to the East Coast. But this time my husband is already there. After 1 week without him, I was more than ready to give up my single parenting duties. But to do that, I had one more challenge. A 5:30 pm solo cross country flight required serious logistics and…

Every restaurant has high chairs and stores our stroller, the waiters always help with simple food options for the kids, and brightly colored playgrounds are all over the city. As we walked the Retiro neighborhood today,…
