... in variety of flavours which are dipped into hot milk until they melt.

Then we head off to try Luxembourg wine at Ross suggestion. If you have never tried it - definately give it a go. Amazing couple hours drinking fine white wine.

... to see Ashley and have Thanksgiving with her and her husband. Another one of my good friends, Jessica Cavazos's, younger sister happened to be in the area so she came out for the event as well. I'm not sure that her original plan included coming to Luxembourg (or Belgium which is the country that I'm actually in although I can see the border from the window) but when she arrived in Paris last week she immediately fell down a flight of stairs and broke ...

... whatever happens. He was a paratrooper in his youth and had a very hardy, can-do approach to life. He’s now about 80 years of age. He told me with a bit of a laugh in his voice, that “if it comes to that, I feel good enough to die.” They’ll receive a visit again in March, and then probably in July. Mr. François is already planning his magic act for the talent show at the next Feast of Tabernacles. He told me it’s all prepared already.

By this time ...

... We then made our way to our host's house. It was easily found. Upon ringing the doorbell, you instantly heard the 3 dogs barking. We came inside and were greeted by them all. Two dogs were hers and one belongs to the neighbor. They were Phoebe, Spoogy, and Nina. Our host was Karyn (I think I'm spelling it right).

The hostel is down at the bottom of a cliff, yay!

The people there speak French and their own language, Luxembourgish I suppose.

... half an hour. The bus was about to leave several times leaving them behind, but a few of us didn't feel right about it. Luckily for Brandon and Nick, they had a lot of friends. A few of us went down to the administration and tried to persuade them not to leave them behind. We didn't have an important meeting to attend to and we didn't know if they could have gotten hurt or not. Right as some students were volunteering to stay behind ...

We had time for a bit of last minute shopping, then it was back to the airport to catch our flight back to Luxembourg (with a 1 hour stop-over in Austria). Sandra wanted to buy a "There are no kangaroos in Austria" T-shirt, but I persuaded her not to.

... Goa to do missionary work with the local Indians and also work on behalf of the Portugeese catholics. Largely due to his tireless work, the Catholic word spread and many of the locals were converted from their native Hinduism to Catholicism. St Francis died abroad somewhere but the story goes that his body did not decay. The body was returned to Goa where a post mortem was performed which confirmed that no artificial preservatives had been added to the body and that it was ...

... small country, all the cartoons on TV and in the newspaper seemed to not have words, just gestures and sound. The weather was kind of grey, the food was good. We discovered Croque Monsieurs (like grilled cheese sandwiches with ham -delish!)

... Casemates - tunnels and chambers dug to further fortify Luxembourg city. Saw Notre Dame church and walked along the park at the bottom of the valley where we found an old church built into the side of the hill. Luxembourg is a beautiful medieval valley.
