Alvisse Parc Luxembourg City

... 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).


We got our things settled in and then left with them to take the dogs on a long walk. There ...

Of course I needed to visit Luxembourg, hiding away there between France, Germany and Belgium. It is the fifith smallest country in the world. It is very hilly and surrounded by trees. The hostel is down at the bottom of a cliff, yay! The city of course is quite small, but it is surrounded by ruins and forest which makes it quite a unique city in amongst the hustle and crowds of all the other major cities. The people there speak French and their own language, Luxembourgish I suppose.

... Roman ruins and the churches up close. Trier was very nice and I love the feeling there, the Roman baths were also really cool to see. We also had a great dinner in the main square of town. I had Pepper Steak and spetzlah. It was so good. The seats outside were great and I was able to people watch and really just embrace in the culture. Plus a little wine probe, wine tasting, helped a lot.

At last I finally arrive in Trier and meet up with Maureen and Richard. They are old friends of my parents and have agreed to put me up for the next few nights. They recognized me at once saying I look like my parents, of course I smiled and said you don't have to be mean. HAHA. Well after we got in the car we went to the top hill of Trier were we could see all ...

This was a gorgeous day and one of the best for cycling as it was warm enough to be comfortable in a T Shirt, but not hot enough to raise a sweat while cycling. I was able to do around 40 kilometers in an abbreviated session of five hours...all of it on the level beside these two beautiful rivers. It fulfilled a dream I have always had in mind to accomplish but never had the time or wherewithall when ...

... was beautiful and the view from the promenade called Chemin de la Corniche was unbelievable. It was definitely worth stopping for and we spent the late part of the afternoon just having a walk around the town. There was a campsite that we found about 5km south of the city and since it was about 5:30, we decided to stay there for the night.

It was a great spot, although ...

Benelux (minus the NE): The People: We didn't spend much time in Brussels, but the people were nice enough, and hey Veronique is Belgian! The people in Luxembourg were stranger, its kind of like Switzerland, a country mainly consisting of bankers, most of the medial workers come from out of the country! So the people are somewhat standoffish and posh ...

... Seejärel vahetus päike jälle vihmaga ja nii kogu päeva. Kahjuks lõuna pool sellist nähtust enam ei kohanud. Täpselt sel hommikul kui Lissabonist Faro poole sõitma hakkasime, kukkus kallama nii hullult, et meil polnud tükk aega mõtet ühtegi peatust teha. Nii jõudsime paarsada kilomeetrit päris kiiresti läbida ja jõudsimegi juba Euroopa kõige läänepoolsemasse tippu: Cabo de Sao Vicente'sse. Sealt sai osta veel viimase bratwurzti enne Ameerikat ja sooja poncho pikaks merereisiks ...
