Ibis Sud Livange

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 ...

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 ...

... in Europe, but it was fun nonetheless. We stayed pretty late, but not until sunset because it's after 10 until the sun sets in the Hague, and we had class in the morning. But it set on our way back to the hotel. The next day we had class and were off to Brussels. We only spent one day in Brussels, but we packed in as much as we could. It was Amber Lane's birthday, so as soon as we got there the Ambers and I went to dinner to ...

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 ...

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 ...
