8 days in Switzerland - 2nd day: Lucerne

According to our initial plan, we were supposed to go for a boat trip around Zurich Lake at around 10am. However, we woke up at 930 am as we were too tired to get up at 7 sth. Well, we din have any other choice but to skip all the excursions in Zurich and left for Lucerne after having a good bfast at the youth hostel.


The bfast served in Zurich Youth Hostel...yummy!!!


We reached Lucerne in the afternoon. As usual, we went to the tourist info counter to get some maps. Usually ZL n Lav will b goin straight to the counter to ask the staff what can we do in the place. Caroline will b busy collecting every pamphlets displayed on the shelves. I wud either follow Carol or just looking at souveniers (ya...i was a bit lazy.. =P).

Then we found our way to the hotel. I couldnt remember exactly wat was the name of the hotel but then i quite liked the room as there was a balcony overlooking a river.



WK, the balcony and the river.

Lucerne was a very beautiful town. It wasnt v ulu yet it was not a busy place. There were two bridges which symbolised the town. One was named Kapellbrucke and the other 1 was called Spreuerbrucke. Both bridges were made of wood and were very very old already.


Lav. U can see there is a wooden bridge in the background. However i m not very sure whether it is Kapellbrucke or Spreuerbrucke. =P

After a short walk in the town center, we decided to go to the Verkehrshaus (the Swiss Transport Museum). Just b4 we entered the museum, we were attracted by the beautiful sunset at the lake region which was just 200m away from the museum. So as usual, another photo session for us. Haha...



As the name of the museum suggested, we saw planes, boats, trains, cars, bikes and etc etc (except for UFO) in it. Most of them were very very old except for sportcars and motorbikes.

I was carrying an aeroplane of the Swissair. Ho ho ho...

After visiting the museum, we then jln jln in the town b4 went back to the hotel to tidur.
