Euro Tour Day 21

Today we left Germany, drove into Luxembourg and on into Belgium.

We drove the last few miles of flat Germany and on into Luxembourg where we pulled in to a cheap parking spot near the train station. We walked up to the open top bus tour stop and grabbed a map of the route - which we proceeded to walk, cheapskates!

We took in the palace, the old city walls, the cathedral and the park. A pleasant enough city all told. Small and clean and generally friendly.

Here we filled up with diesel at a great rate of €1.01 per litre - about 90p or so which is good compared to the price back home.

From Luxembourg we drove on about half way into Belgium to the grounds of a 17th century chateaux where we camped up. The chateaux boasts a restaurant which we treated ourselves to a visit of. Very nice. We tried their local ale, "the best ale in Belgium" and crashed out.
