The small country of Luxembourg with a great capital should become our first destination this day. We absolutely enjoyed a super-nice landscape, an imposing tidiness and lovely architecture.   After we had crossed the almost invisible border to Germany we drove along the river Mosel, …

Finishing the boat ride (4 hours or so), we ventured over to the Deutches Eck where the Rhein and the Mosel rivers merge.  Here there is a giant equestrian statue of Kaiser Wilhelm I.  Ventured up to the top for a view over the rivers...left my camera down below for a long-distance g…

Beautiful city. A place of merge of two rivers - Moselle and Rhine

Burg Eltz is located between Koblenz and Trier in Germany.

From Trier, we headed over to Koblenz for the Fire on the Rhine festival and fireworks.  Left Trier around 6:30 and got to Koblenz just around 7:30.  Mr. Smartguy, I parked right near the Altstadt in the Zentralplatz.  That will come back to haunt me... The second car was a distance…

Nice city. I had only an hour in Koblenz and in that hour we also had to get something to eat. There was a small Weihnachtsmarkt (= market where they sell Christmas stuff).

There are many interesting places. And one trip is not enough to see everything :)

A lot to see in 5 days.

I had been invited to Berlin by a couple of my old friends in Denmark. Once a year we visit a capital somewhere in Europe and this time I had a 7h drive in front of me to get to the destination. Main event besides the attack on the nightlife in the city centre, was a football game at the Olympic Stadium, where we were together with 74.000 other footballers.

Last week we have rent a bungalow in Siegsdorf (Germany). My wife and son together with my parents and me ofcourse stayed there for a week. We have visit some city's in Germany and Austria like Salzburg, St. Johann in Tirol, Kitzbühel, Kufstein, Traunstein and Rosenheim. Unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side :(

Travelling around Europe for 2weeks (AMS-GER-FRANCE-BELGIUM). Exciting country for most of its medieval architecture, chateau and cultural sites which deserves protection for the benefit of all humanity. So, lets start to drive around and see some part of Europe.

We arrived in Koblenz, just in time for sunset.  I wish we had been there a little earlier in the day as there was much to see.  I saw several castles on the hillsides which were just barely visible as the sun continued to set.  Brett took us to the point where the Mosul and Rhine ri…

We arrived in Koblenz and set off to find our hostel.  We crossed a bridge and I saw a "castle" up on a big hill and was thinking...that was on the website of our hostel, I think we are staying there.  We asked locals on the bus how to get to the youth hostel and they told us when it was …
