FRIENDS IN LUXEMBOURG

We were very lucky with the weather when Brian and Orla joined us in Luxembourg.  A week later and it would have been pouring down with rain and high winds. We spent a day exploring Luxembourg city and doing a bit of shopping. The bridge we walked across into the old city was not just an ordinary bridge, but a double bridge with an amazing walkway underneath for pedestrians and cyclists. It had great views of the ravine and the city walls.

We then spent a few days navigating on Soraya along the Moselle River between Luxembourg and Germany. The border runs down the centre of the river. The scenery was beautiful, with banks of vineyards on both sides.

Of course we had to have a few glasses of Moselle wine once we had finished navigating for the day.
