Swtizerland is like the cake, the icing, the candle and the birthday song all in one. It's the most spectacular place I've ever been, and Lucerne (Luzern) is so picturesque it doesn't matter how grey the day, it's perfect.

I love the wooden chapel bridge, Lake of Lucerne, the old city center, and all the pastry shops along the old stone streets.

I want to go back right now! Let's fly to Zurich and hop on a train to Luzern. The sights along the way make the short ride extra-special.
