I posted some pictures the other day of Switzerland that somehow got eaten up by the gremlins so I will try once more. We drove South from Heidleberg, Germany along the French boarder to Luzern, Switzerland. Most of the pictures are self explanatory. We found everybody extremely friendly and helpful and always ready to translate to english anything that we didn't understand. Also extraordinarily neat, clean and flowers everywhere. We rented a hotel room in Luzern and took the train system to Bern the Capital and Zurick, the largest city in Switzerland. The rail system is phenomenal and the station shown in the picture has fourteen tracks and sixteen hundred trains a day come in and out of that station. They routinely run at a hundred and twenty five miles an hour. Most all trains are electric with a power unit on each end and some will separate at certain destinations and each half will go to a different destination. Another thing impressive with the Swiss and also the Austrians is there ability to build tunnels. Hundreds of them. They just completed one that is over thirty five miles long. Just think of boring two tubes through an alp mountain made up of mostly granite for thirty five miles. If you have any questions let me know. These pictures are of Luzern and Interlaken and I will post some more pictures in a few days of Bern and Zurick.
