Autumn Getaway!



This year we headed east of the country (with the car) and invaded Luxembourg. It is relatively much smaller than Belgium. The guide book (from Rough Guides) only mentioned 4 highlights for the country. But what with our busy schedules (like every year end) we did not read up much about this beautiful country. So although we had a good week exploring many romantic and colourful sights – we did miss a few good ones too. But we will return. And there was another valid reason that we couldn’t do too much either – we invited B’s parents along. And with old folks, as they tire easily, walking everyday is out of the question.

Most tourist spots (Museums, castles and ruins) in Luxembourg are only open from April to October. They have pretty harsh autumn and winter seasons. With heavy snowfall, most small and beautiful villages are very tricky to get to. I’ll let the picture do the rest of the talking = )

Vianden

One of the many enchanting sights along our walk in Beaufort.

We were in awe to be able to walk amidst such a beautiful & breath-taking trail in Berfdorf.
