Done with the breath taking views of Junfrau, next day we headed to our next destination. Lucerne. Lucerne is known as a travellers delight in Switzerland. It is comparatively an economical part of Switzerland and hence we had obviously left our shopping for Lucerne. We boarded the famous GoldenPass Panorama train which would take us from Interlaken OST to Lucerne. The journey was again a breathtaking one, but we had almost got used to such amazing scenery by then.
Once in Lucerne we checked into our scenic Hotel which was right opposite the so very famous wooden bridge of Lucerne. It was a pretty hotel too, small and compact. We then headed out in search of food as we were really hungry and found a good Indian restaurant there. We were told Virender Shewag, Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachhan where some of the frequenters there when there are in Lucerne and the restaurant was filled with their photos. The food was pretty good too. Once our stomach was full, we ventured out to explore Lucerne. We took a mini train ride of the city, which pretty much covered the entire city as we were very tired. We then headed to a wonderful church and spent some time out there.
With still time on our hands we decided to take a cruise on the Lake Lucerne. The cruise was pretty ordinary when compared to our previous cruise and also in anticipation of the one we would be having the next day on our way to Mt Pilatus. In the evening we went in search of the so very famous statue of the Dyeing Lion of Lucerne. It is a monument in honour of the soldiers that were killed in a war fighting for Lucerne.
Done for the day, we hit our bed really tired in order to be fresh for our expedition to Mt Pilatus the next day.
