I now have 7 hours of music on my Halloween playlist. I think that should be enough. Thanks to everyone who suggested stuff

Now, running the risk of sounding totally ignorant here but is English a primary language in Switzerland? I know I'm only going to be at the airport for a couple of hours but I'll probably want to get some lunch while I'm there. Just want to know if I'm going to be able to get by. LOL!

*feels like a totally ignorant moron*

Zurich is in German-speaking Switzerland, but most Swiss seem to have three or four languages at their disposal. In the airport at least I think you'll be able to make yourself understood.

Have a great time there.

Oh, well, if it comes to it I can probably muster up enough German accompanied by frantic gesturing. LOL!

Well, not in Switzerland south from Germany... they speak German, French and Swiss. However, at the airport you'll be understood. I mean, every now and then there are international flights at international airports. Sounds crazy, eh?!

LOL!

And, just in case no one understands you: make a hungry face, rub your stomach and scream "Hunger" (with a real U as in 'you'). That'll work! :D

ETA: with real U as in 'you' I mean ou without the y... If that makes sense. Well, try to sound German *rofl*

7 hours of music? Awesome! That should get us through the party okay. *LOL*

Lots of Swiss people speak English, so you shouldn't have any problems at the airport. :)

So far, seven told me they'll be there. Two can't say for sure yet. :)
