The kids picked the title for today. We had a traditional Swiss breakfast and headed into Lucerne. Rudi took the kids on a tour and we saw the Lion Monument, Kappelbruke, Lake Lucerne and the amazing traditional painted buildings in Old Town. Then the kids had a couple of hours to explore the city. They came back with some fun stories and some fun things.
After lunch we boarded a boat and toured Lake Lucerne. It was a beautiful, calm ride that took a lot longer than expected.
Once we disembarked we boarded a cog wheel train that has been in existence since 1889! The views were stunning and every once in a while we'd get a good look at what was happening and were a little frightened.
The top of Mt. Pilatus was amazing. It was cold up there. The weather has been stormy in every city we've visited but the rain, wind and altitude combined for a chilly experience. There were trails to hike and a beautiful visitors center. Some were adventurous and some chose to enjoy the 'view' from behind the glass. After an hour of exploring we went down the other side of the mountain on a gondola.
