What I'm thinking

Europe 2022 Day - 4 - Lake Lugano, St Gotthard Tunnel, Lucerne Switzerland

Tour Info:
Travel this morning to Lugano in southern Switzerland's Italian-speaking Ticino region on the northern shore of glacial Lake Lugano. Its Swiss-Mediterranean mix of cultures is similar to Italy's northern Lombardy region and reflected in its architecture. The palm trees give way to Alpine peaks and glaciers as you continue heading north traversing through the St. Gotthard Tunnel built under the Swiss Alps. On your journey to Lucerne, pass magnificent Alpine scenery, roaring waterfalls and running rivers. In the stunning lakeside Swiss city of Lucerne, get acquainted with the city on your walking tour to the sentimental Lion Monument, the 14th century Chapel Bridge and the cobbled streets of the well-preserved medieval Altstadt (Old Town). Tonight, enjoy dinner together in Lucerne

My take:

Travels continue. Travel day from Lake Como to Lucerne with a stop in Lugano where we wandered the old town squares and visited a 16th century church and a 14th century church and had a snack at a lovely outside cafe.

The at Lucerne we did a one hour walking tour of the old town and walked the two old wooden bridges that were built in the 13th and 14th centuries. Beautiful day till about 4 then the heavens opened and I got drenched. Glad we are here two nights so my clothes dry out.
