A Mosel River Wine Cruise

 Another nice day so we hopped on a champagne cruise through the wine country along the Mosel River in Remich with John and Gina. Germany is on one side of the river, Luxembourg on the other. My flat where I stay during the week is in one of these pictures. Lots of tourists today with the weather being so nice this early.

A Mosel River Wine Cruise


Just a beautiful video of a wine cruise down the Mosel river before it flows into the Rhine river. Germany gets all the credit in this video, but the other side of the river along the route is Luxembourg.

If you pause the video at 25 seconds you can see the little village called Remich on the right side of the river. This is where we have a little flat where I stay during the week when I'm working in Luxembourg. The German village on the left side is called Nennig.

As you can see at the pause, or below in the picture, there is usually 2 or 3 ships docked in front of us where you can take a dinner cruise.

Global warming came to Luxembourg today

We received quite a bit of snow here in Luxembourg yesterday. It looks beautiful throughout the vineyards but it made driving impossible as they do not have the equipment to keep the roads clean here.

The Dallmann's do Belgium, and a few other Countries

Pam and Doug brought Allison with them for a 10 day vacation to Belgium and we had a great time. Sad to see them go as usual, but they have a new greenhouse to open.
To all you friends and relatives, this is their third trip over here, some of you have a lot of catching up to do.

The American Cemetary at Henri-Chapelle, 7992 American boys at rest from the Battle of the Bulge.

The antique markets, sometimes we visited two or three in a day.

Brugge, a very pretty medieval town in Belgium.

Going to the Champagne region of France we had a wonderful day stopping in at all the Champagne houses to "test" their drinkability. Us girls were talking pretty smart by the end of the day.


Pam shows how to drink a demi-sec the American way.
