Gimmelwald to Luzern

It was bittersweet waking up to leave for Luzern. I didn't want to leave Gimmelwald. I was trying to convince Chris that we should just but the ladies house we were staying in, then we could come back whenever we wanted and could rent it out to our American friends other times. We packed up and went down to Lauterbrunnen to buy cheese. Here is the variety we bought. The cheesees are named after the valleys the cows have grazed in.








Breakfast, a custard creme horn. Just married waiting at the train station.





The city of Luzern. The lion, the swans, and the bridge.





The perfect combo of lake, town, and mountains.


Can't pass up a gnome photo op.


The lion monument. This thing is huge, the picture doesn't do it justice.


My old name!!!


The beautiful bridge








There were paintings inside the bridge.








Ahhh Luzern.


After this we went back to our hotel and watched a movie. At this point we were exhausted of constant travel and wanted to go home. Luckily tomorrow was our day. We traveled early to Zurich and caught the plain. Fast and efficient is the name of the game for Swiss ways.





I took Dramamine and slept the whole way back to Chicago. It was amazing. It was a day flight so Chris just boozer the whole way home, Te good food, and drank red wine. I was sleeping but he always was thoughtful and got. Drink for me. Not. What a lush, cheating the system. We arrived in Chicago at 3:45 grabbed our bags from above our heads and went to customs. We left and went out to the bus stop and was on the bus to Rockford Illinois at 5:00. My mom and Chris's mom picked us up and drove us 2 hours back to reality.
