Swans

Im spending a few days in Luzern. It´s one of switzerland´s nicests cities...old town, clean lake (filled with swans) and mountains in the backdrop. In the meantime, i learned a few interesting facts about this country. For instance, although the swiss are known for their neutrality...they´re really prepared for war. Every male has manditory military service, just about every household has a gun and a bomb shelter, and with the touch of a button all the tunnels, bridges, highways used to enter the country can be blown up. One other intersting fact...the swiss decriminalized marajana use a few years ago after a survey by the government showed that over 30% of swiss are users. Lots of guns and lots of drugs...but still one of the safest countries in the world...interesting.
