For a large majority of day we followed the Rhine river on our way to Luxembourg. It was a very beautiful ride. I have always thought in my travels how everybody thinks of their location as nice, beautiful, or even as "God's country". In actuality, lots of geographically-separated areas share common appearances. I saw the rolling hills of Vermont today. I saw meadows that could've been in the American midwest. I saw vast areas that reminded me of the Okanagan region of BC and Washington State. The common castle on top of the hills reminded me I was on a different place on the globe. That, along with the buildings of the towns and the languages being spoken on the train.
We got to Luxembourg in plenty of time to check in and walk around the city. This is smaller that other places we've stayed. It's cute.
