Today we had a boat trip on Lake Como and the went off on the bus to Milan.

... and train travel along a scenic route through the heart of Switzerland. We departed Lucerne via boat and began our journey south through Lake Lucerne. Although thick fog covered much of the lake for the beginning of the journey, the sun began to melt through the mist as the morning progressed. Soon we arrived at the end of the lake, beautiful portraits of the Alps surrounding our small boat.
Our next step was a panoramic train that was to take ...
