On Friday, May 28th we hit the road to Zurich to pick-up Nick and Elli from the airport. We were SO excited for to see our visitors! On the short ride down from Stuttgart we noticed that there were beautifully bright yellow flowers in bloom along the autobahn:
We're not sure if they are wildflowers or are grown for commercial purposes, but we loved them either way. Every 1/2 kilometer or so, we'd see another huge square field of these lovely yellow ladies. Once we entered Switzerland the yellow flower fields disappeared and we geared our attention towards our main goal: getting Nick and Elli!
We pulled up to the Zurich Airport, I hopped out and walked in to find:
Woo hoo! Their flight from Chicago was in and their bags were on their way to baggage claim. In the Zurich Airport there are large floor to ceiling windows that let family and friends scan the baggage claim area. I kept my eyes peeled and then...
Success! Right after the flash on my camera went off they looked over and we shared some very excited waves. Once their bags were in hand we found each other on the other side of the glass. Brian pulled the car up and we were all off to start our adventure in Zurich with our visitors!

The yellow flowers are called Raps they use them to make vegetable oil here. They make the view so beautiful. Hope you are having fun with your friends.
Oh, cool! :)
