On our way to Luxembourg today we stopped off at the battlegrounds on Napoleon in Waterloo, Belgium. It was a pretty nice sight. Seeing some of the monuments and the battleground sites. Anyways after that we headed over to Luxembourg and man is it ever nice! The tourism info wasn’t joking when they called this one part of the city “the best view in Europe.” The city center is built up on a high hill and the old city is in the valley – and that makes for some very spectacular views! Anyways I walked around for a long time and the environment here was very similar to Switzerland…really friendly people with a nice small-town feel. I went on quite a few little hiking adventures in some of the parks there (if you wanna call that hiking) and actually got a little scared off a few times since it gets dark here early hahaha…but regardless this city is soooooooooo cool, it’s like one big giant castle! Anyways I had a really nice dinner here and pigged out as though I was still in Brussels on the desserts and yeah that was the day. The actual city isn’t all that big and can easily be covered by foot but you really need to spend time exploring to fully enjoy the nature here. I still can’t get over how nice the views are, but I was always a little tense when looking over the railings on some of the higher hills hahaha. I’m not scared of heights or anything BUT this place is soooooo high up and a lot of the places just have dinky railings. Anyways Luxembourg is a very nice city with AWESOME hilltop views!!!
