TdF 2011 Day 2: Lucerne

June 27, 2011

Waking up early. It would be a long day. I met with a Thai guy named Phun and we decided to explore the Mt. Pilatus together. Going up by cable car and going down by cog-wheel train, which was the steepiest one in the world.

Hey, the GSA got a mate, a “vintage” Honda Fireblade… really nice!

The weather was awesome. Just like yesterday.

Heading to the cable car station.

Korean B&B

First stop: Fräkmüntegg station (1415 m)

Okay, time to go up again…

Arriving in the final station

Souvenir shop… Another cheap “Swiss Military”…

What a view!!!!

Shit… I got the wrong shoes!

Rivella, typical Swiss herb limonade

Going back down with the steepiest cog-wheel train in the world

Waiting for the ferry

Boarding time

Really patriotic

Back in Lucerne

Jesus! It’s almost a double compared to the prices in Germany! And remember: 1 EUR = 1,18 CHF!

The city wall

A roadside chappel

That was Lucerne.
