Images 28 - France & Luxembourg
Lunch in the Grande Île, nice to be eating French food again...
...enjoying a whole poussin...
...and an excellent glass of Gewürztraminer
The River Ill, serenely flowing past the the Grande Île
Strasbourg's enchanting Rhineland houses...
...slightly Germanic, but definitely French
"I am bored of pointy things!"
Inside a pointy thing
And admiring another, magnificent pointy thing: the Cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-Strasbourg...
...surely one of the finest Gothic facades in Europe...
...in colour, or monochrome...
...this edifice isn't wasted on us...
...but nonetheless, we're not going to queue half an hour to get in...
...we'll just admire it from the outside
Strasbourg, old and new
Rhineland houses, Strasbourg...
...even prettier when they're overhanging the Ill...
...which divides into numerous tributaries through the city
French musicians, playing French songs
Our new tolls manager
Nearly our last border crossing...
The concert next to our campsite in Luxembourg this evening. Helpfully, we can just walk in and enjoy it.
Waking up refreshed - the Luxembourgish are civilised people and their concert finished at 10.30pm.
Probably need a clean shirt fairly soon
Driving into Luxembourg centre... possibly Europe's most peaceful (boring..?) city?
