Hotel de la Poste Esch-sur-Alzette

This is an incredible place...but I don't have any pictures... when I got there my camera stopped working :( But I really think it was a blessing because I just saw everything and didn't worry about getting pictures of everything for later, I just saw and took it all in. It was a much needed get-away and it really blew me away, especially the Cathedral! Mass there was unbelievable...and I have a new-found love of French...and their pastries :)

... hike and we took the dogs with us. It was very nice. It was a small cascade and it was very quiet and peaceful there. She said in the summertime it is very crowded. I imagine it would be like the waterfalls in North Carolina in the summer.<br><br>We got back home and I started working on uploading pictures. I had 5 days to catch up on. We chatted with Karyn while she prepared a dinner of pasta with broccoli ...

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.

... my parents worked for those years. It was pretty awesome to see where my dad was a firefighter so many years ago. Also it was weird because the base brought me back to my youth were I spent lots and lots of time on the base in Great Falls. It was really cool to have that feeling again. After we were done with Spangdhalem we meet up with Mo and went to Trier to walk around and look at ...

... van Blair; de algehele Euro-ellende; Surinaamse meisjes in Engelse vrouwengevangenissen (spreken beter Nederlands dan Surinaams) en nog zo wat van die dingen. Oh ja, en er is een fantastische camping in Luxemburg, in Esch sur Alzette. Laten we daar nu net heengaan! En nu staan we dus in Esch. Gistermiddag was het tamelijk goed weer, wel een koud windje, maar dat kwam goed uit want we hadden bedacht dat we nu eindelijk eens die Gaalgebierg af moesten dalen om Esch te gaan ...

... met zeer luide stemmenn dwars over de hele camping heen in onverstaanbare dialecten met elkaar converseerden. Hun kinderen waren zo mogelijk nog erger, of ze nou 3 waren of 13, allemaal te dik en te luidruchtig. En dan de Denen naast ons, die gilden zo hard dat T er subiet hoofdpijn van kreeg. Toen er ook nog een gezellig gezinnetje met drie kinderen en twee tenten aan de andere kant tegen ons ...

... laid on a free show by the Prodigy and the place was completely mobbed! As well as the music venue it also has a club, restaurant, recording studios and rehearsal rooms. The Rockhal is in an extraordinary setting - the old industrial wasteland of Esch-Belval. They are renovating the whole area and its amazing to see the old Iron/steel works (it is a protected site now) against the ultra modern ...

Our family travelled to Luxembourg for a week for a work conference. Was it just me or was there a bank on every corner? I think the trip was quite expensive for my parents. <br>Assuming it was because there are so many languages spoken in ...

Sunny but cool. After a fairly early breakfast, Paul and I hopped on a crowded train to Luxembourg City. The countryside was beautiful, but, unfortunately, the train does not follow the river. It cuts instead through the hills, giving one only Hegelian glimpses of the world. We struck up a conversation with Robert, a computer science student from Stockholm. Though we originally separated when we reached our destination, we later re-encountered him and asked him to join us. It turns ...
