Today we got up early and left Munich, Germany for Lucerne, Switzerland. The long bus ride was broken up with lunch spent in Lichtenstein. The kids had a great time in the little country but learned just how expensive it can be to eat in a country that is based on fianance an tourism.
After our break, we took a short bus ride to arrive in Lucerne. We had a short walking tour through the city and then the kids had free time. Annie and George met up with their uncle who lives in Lucerne and the rest of the kids shopped (for chocolate) and looked around. Lucerne is mostly a beautiful and peaceful place...however today was special. Today was the soccer game -- Germany v. England. As Germany crushed England, we could hear every goal (and attempted goal) throughout the city. It was an awesome environment in which to watch the game. The streets of Lucerne were full of celebrators all evening!
We are all headed to bed (hopefully at a reasonable time -- although the Mexico v. Argentina game is on). Tomorrow we leave REAL
LY early to catch the train to Paris!
