14/9 - Luxembourg

This is the third day of the trip at Europe, everyday need to wake up and travel around. It’s tiring and takes time travel from one place to another. We woke up at 6am this morning and have our breakfast in the hotel. After that travelling down to Luxembourg - the richest country in the world and it has a very high GDP per capita income. There’s a lot of MNC and those big corporation around this area, of course the European Nations’ parliaments, court of justice and so forth. Walked around this place, we saw the constitutions, Cathedral of Our Lady, Government district, Place d’Armes. We walked through the old town to the Grand Canyon Valley, Royal Guard at the Duke Palace and the Tourist information board office at the William II square. It’s raining cats and dogs. We had our breakfast / high tea or maybe can consider as our lunch at one of the famous pastry’s café. What should I say? Err, I’m feeling contented! The dessert and all those pastries look so tantalizing and delicious. Vindrew and I chose two pastries and one hot chocolate. If I can get this in Malaysia, that’s good. The pastry so delicious, we are just feeling contented, happy and satisfied. Enjoy our pastries while observing around the places, feel good!

After that meet up with everyone and heading to the next destination, the journey take so long time. That’s about 250km from Luxembourg to Heidelberg – Germany’s Student Prince City. Along the journey, we saw lots of plants which going to harvest very soon and to be used for red wine. Ice wine, which is very famous in Germany and the farmers need to harvest it in the early morning 2am and crash it while it is still in frozen. Red wine is good for health and reduces calories; I’ve no idea with it, Ha-ha, maybe it is true? I love the unique buildings around this area, so nice and classic. We walked around this small place, sight-seeing everywhere, Twin Tower Old Bridge, Necker River, and the 13th Century sand stone castle on the hill side. Besides, it is a very nice place to do some shopping, the environment very nice. Then had our dinner at one of the Chinese Restaurant Asia, everyone so hungry, two plates of rice still couldn’t fill up our empty stomach. Ha-ha.

Have a good rest in hotel at Germany, revitalize myself and get ready for tomorrow activities around Munich and New Swan Castle. Do not ever listen to senior’s advice only, always be cautious and do some homework before you travel around. The weather and world is changing now. Our planet is sick. Weather and temperature of last year doesn’t mean same as this year ok! Senior said the temperature and weather will be quite warm and hot throughout the journey. Bear in mind, it is autumn now, and this year the weather and temperature so cold! It’s freaking COLD now!! Good night, people.
