on the ferry to Lucerne

We woke up in the morning at like 7:30 ON OUR OWN!!! It was pretty easy though because the sun was shining in our window, it was amazing when I looked over and the only thing I could see was the huge mountains and the clouds sitting below them… it was pretty sweet to be up high enough that we were above the clouds or at times.. IN THEM! Well we went to breakfast and had rolls as usual and possibly the most rank hot chocolate of the trip. Then we took a little train down the mountain, for some reason it reminded me of theme parks and I was all ready to start going fast but it never happened. It was beautiful coming down and then at the bottom there was a lake so we went from the train to a ferry. The ferry crossed lake Lucerne to take us to the actual city. (this whole process was about an hour and a half or even longer possibly… but I think that was large part of the whole experience though. Then we visited a swiss army knife place and also a watch shop.. I can’t believe people were paying anywhere from 250- 600 euro for a watch!! I would think like 80 or 90 was pushing it… weird! We walked around the town took some pictures went and saw this monument of a huge lion carved into a cliff.. kind of like the stone mountain in Georgia. Then we took the Ferry back to the mountain and the train but this time we went all the way to the top! And we found a fun tramp o line and all that jazz but had to pay money for it.. afterwards we headed back to the hotel for our bbq and then we played in the lobby a bit and went to bed.
