Post No5 - 2012 Trip - More of Switzerland

It was a beautiful drive through to Lucerne the following day. The Swiss countryside was chocolate box perfect with the constant backdrop of snowclad mountains


with beautiful 'pointy' churches in the small villages we passed through

We finally made it to Lucerne where we spent a couple of nights. Its a beautiful city right on the Lake with many stunningly decorated buildings


We had a very exciting day too going up the grande Mt Pilatus on a teensy red cable car
 thats 'us' up in the air, the little red dot!

  Amazing views of everything from on our way up there
So after lots of photographs, 
 posing, and expensive coffee and cake
We came back down the steep mountain slopes on a little cog railway (see below)
 which was a lot easier than what these brave people were doing!

 Next (yes, it was a big day!) we were onto a lovely old ferry and a leisurely cruise back along the lake to Lucerne - everything along the shores was sooo green, and just so Swiss!


THANKS RITA FOR AN AMAZING MEMORABLE DAY xx
