Finally left beautiful Interlaken heading for Lucerne on one of the hottest days so far in the trip being well into the high 30's. We stopped at the Swiss Cultural Museum on the way which is laid out over a very, very large site and brings together all the various different cultural aspects of Switzerland from housing styles to arts and crafts and loads more.
