Lucerne, Switzerland, as the second last stop in the tour. With its famous Lion monument and Chapel Bridge it was worth an evening. We also managed to get an authentic Swiss knife with our names engraved on it. We also got our hands on some Swiss knife shaped chocolates- tourists, you know! When we came back, tired, we got assigned to the best hotels in the trip- with a rainshower! Almost everyone came to the dinner an hour late and when we got there the hotel surprised us with an awesome meal (the hotel had a surprisingly large number of Indians in the staff!)
Paris was the last stop. Although the 'City of lights' was mostly what we had heard, we were a tired lot even before we started touring the place. An even though Paris has an inimitable list of offerings in the Arc de triomphe, the Effel Tower, the Champs Elysees, Notre Dam, and the Louvre and they were all worth the money, all of us were way too tired to give the monuments their due.
The next day we were back on the coach to the Calaise port en route Dover to London and then back to Nottingham! It has been great sharing with you all these experiences- let me know your thoughts!
PS: After the fiasco of posting Mansi's pic in Cardiff Castle- I have been forbidden to post any of her pics!
