Trains, Planes and Automobiles, plus more...

Well the day started off very well, an early start from Bern to Luzern and I was promptly at the main Bahnhof to catch the 07:30 train. Little can be said for Marissa as a last minute dash she made it with seconds to spare before the doors closed and we departed from Bern destine for a day of adventure. We weren't very smart not getting a Swiss Day Cards for 39 francs, so had to make do with the half tax rail pass instead. Yes Mum I know you are brighter than me and would have planned this in advance, but as I like to leave things to the last minute I was a bit too late. Anyway where was I, oh yeah, on the train bound for Luzern. So what were we doing up so early? Well getting an early start so we could cram in a busy day. Once in Luzern, sun shining we walked along the promenade toward the "Verkehrshaus museum" which is the transport museum, full of all shape and sizes of different transport contraptions, cars, planes, boats, bikes, trains, etc. so well worth a visit if you like that sort of thing. Arriving just before 10:00 we had a few minutes to wait before the doors opened and we were allowed in. .......TBC
