Day 3...I think!

Loosing track of the days already!  Today we board the William Tell Paddle Steamer across lake Luzerne to Fluelen.  Then a train ride to Laguna.  More of that later.

We had a fabulous night last night.  After having a mediocre meal at an extortionate price, we found a small, smoky (yes, no rules out here it seems) bar where the locals play a very strange game of cards with even stranger playing cards! After a bit of negotiating we managed to borrow a pack....mmmm...we've taken some pics of them so will get them posted soon.  They consisted of Kunig (King), Ober (we named Queen), Under( our Jack), a strange 10 and the rest of the pack up to 6.  Each suit was an acorn, a flower, shield and.....orbs.  But we had a great time making up our own games of gin and trumps.  We laughed so much the whole place thought we were mad and wondered why we could make their local card game to funny!

I think my internet connection is about to time out, so will leave this  now and write some more when we next hit a wifi hotspot.  We are having a great time! xx
