Coming home

The days in London, which presented itself in the second half of last week from its best side with no rain and sunshine, were pretty intense for Markus with late nights and early morning every day. While the conference was a big success the task to catch up some sleep was failed though miserably and the early pick up on Saturday morning at 0400 from the hotel to catch the flight back to Zurich did not help either. Hence he returned completely knackered and exhausted and a health- and fitness-check on Saturday afternoon turned out to be pretty useless as the results were distorted by sleep deprivation, stress and alcohol.

Jakob was all excited to see his Dad again who was a big-time baby outfit-shopper bringing back ca. 15 new outfits all from babyGAP for the little one. Saturday evening it then was Jakob who brought his Dad to bed rather than the other way around and the two boys fell asleep together early in bed in order to be fit and ready for the trip back home to Vienna on Sunday morning. A big family breakfast Sunday marked the end to our days in Vorarlberg this summer and departing was not easy as we all enjoyed the time very much.


On the road with the guardian angel

Our journey back home via Munich, Salzburg and Linz was smooth and fairly quick as Jakob has been sleeping again most of the time and only woke up once for a pit stop in Mondsee where he was feeding and was provided with a new diaper and fresh clothes as his nappy ran over and he was all dirty up o half his back. When we reached home in the afternoon Jakob needed to inspect the flat carefully and get used to his new old environment and the fact that there are only two people available for entertainment again.

Jakob, Kerstin & Markus
