Sächsilüüte

 Hey you lovely guys! :-)
Okay before you look at these pictures and think swiss people are weird 'cause they dress up like knights and Egyptians we should maybe do some explanation!
Yesterday was the "Sächslilüte" which is always in the middle of April and all the guilds of Zurich walk through the city with their different costumes!
At the end they all meet at the "Böögg" which is a fake snowman on top of a bunch of wood.
At exactly 6 o' clock they set fire on the bottom and count the time until the head of the snowman explodes! The less time it takes, the better the summer should be!
Yesterday it took about 35 minutes which is reeeeaaaallllyy long, but after this beautiful day we're definitely confident about that!
And one more thing! we've only got 4 more days to go and then we're off to Paris - can't waaiiiiitt!
We hope you all enjoy this post and we'll see you very soon!
Lots and lots of love from Zurich
Nina & Rachel

 Definitely the best guild from Zurich - Zunft Meisen!
















Have a lovely evening you guys! xxx
