Hi dad :)
Well I guess I'll start off since you seem busy packing
This morning,our Trafalgar tour ventured off to the mountain tops. We travelled up by a tram and then we hopped onto a cable car that swung back and forth at certain stages! However we would all agree that the trip up was DEFINITELY worth it. The views from there were absolutely breath-taking. However we still felt like we wanted to see more of the scenery so we walked further up which was quite difficult because the air was very thin and we struggled to breathe. But from there we had a 360• view of the mountains and the Swiss village.

So back to Michael reclaiming the iPad:
Monday, 20 June : Traveled from Venice to Lake Lucerne in central Switzerland.
This evening we watched a lively Swiss folklore show with quite bizarre acts including playing a broom, a "singing saw", Swiss flag twirling, two men in a cow suit and large men blowing horns about 2.5 meters long. Of course there was lots of yodeling and yours truly and Amanda took part on stage as well!
Tuesday 21 June : Continuing Amanda's contribution above, this was truly an eventful day. In the morning we took on old time tram ride, followed by a modern cable car up to the summit of Mount Stanserhorn, reaching 6,300 feet. The alpine views were staggering.
Later this morning we had time to shop for Swiss watches, Swiss army knives and chocolate. The afternoon was spent visiting a local farm and riding a horse drawn carriage.
