Luzern 2: Kapellebrucke and Salate

Strolled around Luzern (you don’t just walk here) and across both old bridges, including the Chapel bridge. This has a large and cool stone tower in the middle. Sadly the entrance to the tower has been turned into a not cool souvenir shop…

But the bridge is still quite the attraction, with lots of cameras clicking. At each rafter there is a triangular painting dating from 1600s showing event in Swiss history.

Next we had dinner at a waterside pizzeria, complete with arguing Italians/Italian-Swiss in the open pizza kitchen. Below is the SFr 12.50 ($16) salad (not the main dish). Food is expensive here, but we had Nutella and bread for lunch, so its ok.

Final random thought, the Swiss toilets don’t have tanks, the water just runs from a water pipe. Seems like a good system.
