Jo’s Monday Walk2017-Wk-13
Lucerne-3
Last week I left this journey as we reached
the end of our train trip at almost the top of
Mt Rigi, in Switzerland.
This week I have jumped to the very top of Mt Rigi…
mainly because the walk up was leaving me
a little breathless, although it was nice
to see some of the younger generations
fall behind me…
Mt Rigi is almost surrounded by three lakes; namely,
Lake Lucerne, Lake Zug and Lake Lauerz.
After a few minutes at the top it was time to retrace our steps…
which I though would be a slower journey
as my knees do no like walking down stairs/hills etc.
It was slower, but it also gave me time to take a few shots.
About half way and still well above the kiosk, on the right,
with the train terminal further down in the middle background.
Mt Rigi kiosk.
This group is just beginning their trek up to the pinnacle…
while we had jostled for our seats on the train
before departing Mt Rigi for a comfortable cruise,
on Lake Lucerne, back to Lucerne.

What a beautiful place! Sorry about the dodgy knees!

Thank you re dodgy knees. However, I think they are the result of being ‘bullet proof’ in my younger years, running, jumping etc and my worst knee is result of a football injury back in the days when treatment was to put you in a quieter position on the ground. Going up stairs is bad enough…down is harder. But lots more worse off.

I’m never sure I had a style to cramp…but yes, I think it does. 😀
