Parc Belair Sail Hotel Luxembourg Luxembourg City

We were on the road by 10 am, just as planned. Traffic is a bit heavier than we would like, but you work with what you're handed. It&#8217;s supposed to take about 6 hours to get to Luxembourg. We&#8217;ll see how it progresses.<br><br>We passed through Belgium at 1:15 pm. We passed through Luxembourg at 2:15 pm. We stopped along the way to have some lunch at 3 pm because I was very hungry. It was a very small town ...

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.

On Thursday I got up and walked the city of Speicher and looked at the whole town, it really isn't that big at all. It is a small city and most people either work on the Air Force Base or they drive to Bitburg or Trier to work. Anyways it was nice to see the small city and where my parents lived for a few years. After I was finished walking Richard and I went onto the base to look around ...

... snored really loud, a slovenian woman who also snored loud, and an American girl named Sara who is studying in Barcelona.  She actually goes to Trinity College in Hartford, which was a really cool coincidence.  She was very nice and we became fast friends with her.  We all went to sleep that night with the help of some earplugs due to our snoring roommates.   The next day we woke up early to get the free breakfast at the hostel.  By 9:30 Kara, Nicole, and ...

... the passenger boats putted by (invasively close, in fact, as the Mosel is a much more intimate river than the Rhine). The next morning I had an unprecedentedly early start. Up with the sun and on the road by 7:30. While the riding on the Mosel is very beautful, the vineyards, bends and curves do get repetative. Before I knew it I had laid down 150 km of rubber and was nearing the Luxembourg border. I shopped for dinner ...

... oma punase kohvriga suvalises suunas edasi. Kuna eriti aimu polnud, kuhu minema peaks, sis jäin seisma ja pidasin endaga nõu kuni kuulsin jälle usaka häält selja taga. Selgus, et ta oli minuni juhatanud teise eksinu, kelleks osutus Riia kaardiga eestlane :D Tegime kindlaks, et oleme siiski 5 min jalutuse kaugusel oma sihtkohast! Bussi sisenemisel ei suutnud ma jälle ühist keelt bussijuhiga leida, nii me siis rääkisime: tema saksa-prantsuse ja mina inglise ...

... Town Hall. We crossed to Place de la Constitution to see the Gëlle Fra Memorial commemorating the efforts of the resistance during the occupation by the Nazis in World War II. The place also had great views over the Petrusse Valley. Our walking tour then took us past Cathedral to the Blessed Virgin arriving in the Place Clairefontaine to see the Grand Duchess Charlotte Memorial. We walked along Chemin de la Corniche and took in the magnificent views over the ...

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 ...

... 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.
