day 2

Waking up in sunny Troyes and having freshly baked baguette and croissant for breakfast sure set us up well for the day. We were on the motorway for a while and then on to the a roads.with the alps gradually nearing the scenery changed from flat lands to foothills but always beautiful, we entrees Switzerland at Basel and paid 35 euros tax !! Too many tunnels and speed limes of 100k meant that we saw a lot of interesting country side. Lucerne was sleepy- got agree ride on the ferry and enjoyed the spectacular views of the mountains, before we grabbed some food and walked the old town. Very beautiful , bansky though in a more traditional sense !! Have long drive tomorrow to Verona , stoping on the way at an ice cream shop recommended by Paul !!
