Along the GR5 between Beaufort and Grundhof.
Eating breakfast at l'Erns Nior Hotel. The first real croissants we ever had were here ten years ago. You can tie a string to them and fly them.
Sandstone outcrops and Boulders near Berdorf, lu. We saw more hikers here than anywhere else on the walk.
Poppies in a wheat field.
Natural tunnels in the rock, again near Berdorf.
Overlooking Echternacht, lu.
Looking into a German camp ground along the Sure River in Echternacht.
The Mosselle River Valley. Beautivul views as our route took us on walks through vineyards and through forests on the ridges.
Vineyards that produce very good white wine that cost 1.5 euro per glass. Hard to keep waling after lunch.
Down the stairs, through the vineyard and into the village of Ahn n the banks of the Mosselle
Flowers and flower boxes everywhere. The peonies are fading, but the roses are coming on and lavender, too. Soon we will have cherries. This along the Mosselle.
Troix Frontiers, just outside of Ouren, Be. This bridge crosses the Our River and I am in Belgium, Luxembourg, and Germany.
Trekkers! GREAT photos, thanks. Keep 'em coming. The concept of trail mix & beer for dinner is not appealing but the alternative was less appealing, I'm sure! We leave Sunday (our Independence Day) for Zagreb. Happy trails to you. ~ Carrie & Peter
ReplyDeleteWOW! WOW! WOW! Great pics. It's nice to see Luke in some of them. You have brought back memories of my trip to that area. Thanks - - Sue
ReplyDeleteRhonda,
ReplyDeleteIs Luke putting on a few pounds? That picture in the vineyard shows a paunch. You're not carrying his stuff for him, are you? Maybe you need to get him out dancing at night?
Looks like a great time. Love those photos.

Great pictures, great trip, great time. I'm envious.

Hi Luke & Rhonda,
ReplyDeleteTom and I are sitting in front of the Rubicon enjoying the warm weather and a frosty beer and tea. We so enjoy the blog and often discuss how much fun you must be having and how maybe some day we can do the same. I hope the new boots you bought don't give you too much trouble and you don't have to leave the poles again to catch a train. Ha ha
Happy 4th of July! A toast to you - salute' Bye for now
Cindy & Tom
Aloha,

Should get very exciting over there.Any chance of seeing the tour de france? Speaking of sports Stephens team won the state chamionship again and are heading to Washington sometime soon.
Keep up the writings,
Sis
Hi Rhonda and Luke,
ReplyDeleteI love the photos. It is great to see you both looking so well. If I walked all day I could enjoy a croissant like that as well ;
9 days until Zac's wedding. Remember to think of he and Brenda on July 17th. All positive thoughts from those who believe in long and happy marriages should be sent their way.
Love to you both,
Val
