Lucerne cont............
Category: My latest Europe trip | Posted: Thu Nov 03, 2005 3:30 pm After we had descended the Stransnehornbahn we were privileged to be able to have a genuine Swiss lunch at a local farm. (When Tour Directors find this sort of thing they very much keep it to themselves. If they told others it would soon become way too busy) So, we went about 10Km to a great farmhouse. Half the group went for a horse & buggy tour of the village while the other half enjoyed a wonderful Swiss luch of a variety of freshly-made swiss breads, cheese, wine and various cold meat. It was very nice. This is the farmhouse as we approached. Everything was so green! The rainfall is quite adequate and it really did look a picture. After lunch, our group went on the buggy ride. We toured their lovely village. In Switzerland each village basically governs itself. There are national laws of course, but each village is very much responsible for it's own governance. It has its own council, and their equivalent to a Mayor. No other village may interfere in their governance. The homes are beautifully maintained and there are piles and piles of neatly stacked firewood everywhere. Everything is SO neat. Even though it would be cold in winter, I could live there tomorrow!
