5 Avenue Marie-Therese Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, Luxembourg, 352-45-61-41-1
The busiest week yet. I hardly had time to sleep, let alone blog. I apologize for not keeping up. I know you all are eagerly waiting to hear about what I'm doing as I trek across Europe. Oh, btw, Amber and I are having a competition on who gets the most hits to our blog. Team, I'll be honest with you, you're way behind. I'll accept full responsibility for not posting as many blogs, but from now on you are officially on notice. You have a lot of catching up to do. So here was my week: The Hagu...
Luxembourg, Luxembourg alinamarie06We woke up and packed to go to Luxembourg later today. We then were in search of food. Nothing was really open, the only thing I found was Subway, so I got a sub for breakfast. We had loaded the bus, and then realized that a couple of people were missing. They called the people in their rooms, and then went to go knock on their door. Two guys (they were roommates) had just woken up at the knock on the door. They were informed that we were leaving for the Commission and would have to get them...
Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, Luxembourg amberleeWe woke up very early and was down to eat (free) breakfast at 7am. We then got on the bus and went to the European Court of Justice (the Supreme Court for the European Union). We got there, went through security, and stood around for about a half hour. We then were taken into a room and got a pre-briefing of the case we were going to here. It was a preliminary ruling case about whether a Spanish contract concerning gas stations and whether they are required to follow the rule limiting contra...
Luxembourg City, Luxembourg amberleeI got up, ate the free breakfast, and went to my classes. I had International Law and the Arts first. I was very excited because we finally got some substance. We then had Future in International Criminal Justice. After classes, Alina, Josh, and I met to go and do stuff. First we ran to H and M because there was a big sale, and Alina wanted to look. I kept Josh company outside because he didn't want to go clothes shopping, so we looked around for a place to eat lunch later, and also found a ...
Luxembourg City, Luxembourg amberleeToday I allowed myself to sleep in a little bit and then went down to breakfast. We then got ready and tried to go out shopping, but everything was closed because it was Sunday. We were very disappointed. We then came back to the hotel and did important stuff on the internet. While there, Wen and Gianluca invited us out to lunch. We tried to take them to Farfalla, which, according to Gianluca, means butterfly in Italian. That was closed too. The only cheap place we saw open was the kebab sho...
Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, Luxembourg amberlee Greetings from the smallest country I've ever been to!
It is my last night in Luxembourg, and I finally have time to start blogging about my trip here. The Internet has been spotty, and I need to go to the lobby of our hotel to use it, so i'm just going to do one big blog about Luxembourg.
We arrived in Luxembourg on Wednesday afternoon. No more Texaco lunches, thankfully, but we did stop at an Auto-Grill, that had a Pizza Hut and another small restaurant. I'm fairly certain tha...

... oil and garlic. It was actually very good, and I'm not a big broccoli fan. We spent the rest of the evening chatting in the kitchen because it was the warmest room in the house. There is a wood burning stove in the kitchen and that is what is used mainly to heat the house. It got very cold here. Karyn said that it was -3 C the prior evening!
We chatted around the stove and listened to a variety of ...
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.
Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, Luxembourg tonkin... 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.
Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, Luxembourg drunkendidier... Trier. It was breathtaking. We could see all the Roman ruins and all of the churches in the city. It was a really amazing sight for me. So after a few minutes of gazing at the city we got back in the car and went to Speicher, where I lived for the first year of my life. After getting to their house in Speicher we had a few drinks and just chatted about the past.
