You can take the boys out of North Bend, but you can't take the North Bend out of the boys...

I think this is the first Saturday we have spent in Luxembourg...of course, we didn't sit around and relax, we were on the move. We spent most of the day exploring Vianden, Luxembourg. It is a beautiful old village set at the bottom of a valley. We took a chair lift up to a castle and then made our way down winding cobble stone streets. I was in awe of the beauty and could picture the Tour de Luxembourg cyclists making their way carefully up the narrow streets. As usual, the boys, and Greg, had very little interest in listening to me and they spent most of the time looking at the flea market and watching the fish jump in the river.

Our evening was another attempt at exposing our kids to culture...a jazz festival in the old downtown of Luxembourg City. Again, I was in awe of the beauty and people, and the boys (Greg included) were more interested in eating the food and watching the fish jump in the river.

We're off to Brussels tomorrow (Sunday). Greg has business in Brussels on Monday, so the boys and I are tagging along. I think Greg's idea of having the family travel with him on business is more fun than the reality of it. He says, "I have business in Brussels on Monday." And I say, "Great, we've never been to Brussels, sounds fun." I don't recall ever getting the invite, but how can he possibly say no to us???
