From Lucerne we took the boat to Ruetliwiese, that's where Switzerland was founded in 1291 by the three original cantons of Uri, Schwyz and Unterwalten by establishing a loyalty oath. For the 700th anniversary of Switzerland, the "Path of Switzerland" was created giving each canton a piece of the walk around Urnersee (part of Lake Lucerne) connecting all the cantons - we did the walk from Ruetli to Seelisberg. From there the old Steamboat "Stadt Luzern" (1928) took us back to Lucerne and we were fortunate enough to have some live music from the "Blue Balls Festival" on the boat!
