Zürich airport, like the main Bahnhofstrasse area of Zürich , is lit up each Christmas time in keeping with the festive moods.
This year, for some reason which escapes me, there is an abundance of Blue Santas littering the concourse - many wishing the passengers a Merry Christmas.
Can you see the Santa in this picture?
