Lake Lucerne

by sandysmith - last update: Aug 6, 2005

Like most VT visitors to Lucerne we saw it in the rain. However we did manage to catch it in the sunshine during a short stop on route to Lake Maggiore in Italy so I only have a few decent pics.

More recently I had time in this lovely city all by myself whilst waiting for Rebibi to take me to their family home in Hasliberg for the weekend and to join the VT meeting in Thun. It was a strange experience being on my own but I got to readmire the architecture and discover new areas of Lucerne ...like the walls and some strange local customs .....

Pros:"A delightful swiss town, mountains, lakes and frescoed architecture galore"
Cons:"its prone to rain ;-(("
