Ah Switzerland. Lucerne was probably the most beautiful stop on our trip. We arrived around lunch time and first up we visited the Lion Monument followed by a demonstration at a watch & swiss army knife store. I bought myself a swiss army knife and it was the best purchase I made on the whole trip - mostly for opening wine and cutting cheese at picnics! We then walked around town basking in the afternoon sun and wandered along the Kapellbrücke - the oldest wooded covered bridge in Europe. So dreamy!
Our accommodation for the night was a former women's prison (see hallway photo above) - with bars on the doors and all! Interesting experience. We had our most expensive meal of the trip in Switzerland but it was pretty darn worth it, especially the cheese fondue. There's no way I was going to Switzerland and not having cheese fondue! My mouth is watering just thinking about it again. Yum.
