Luxembourg in the fog - January 25

ထုတ်ဝေခဲ့သည်။: 26.01.2020

The food last night was really good, although we really struggled to finish everything from our three-course menu. Afterwards, we just rolled to the bus and crashed.

This morning it is cold again and the ground is frozen... the advantage is that the grass is less muddy! We treat ourselves to a delicious coffee at David's bar, pay our bill, and grab four fresh croissants. If you are ever near Merry-sur-Yonne, you should definitely make a detour to this campsite! Small place, great bar, and fantastic staff!

We are driving through the smallest villages and most remote side roads again before we get on the train at Troyes. Our stage today is 430 km and is a lot of distance at once after a long time! Our destination is Enscherange in Luxembourg. The weather is cold but sunny, so at least we can enjoy the beautiful landscape... but that will change during our drive! Shortly after Metz, we want to stop at a Carrefour, buy some French delicacies before crossing the border! We choose one that is near the train station, and when we arrive there, we can't believe it! A huge parking lot in front of a complete shopping center and absolute traffic chaos!!! What is happening here on Saturday afternoon... are the shops closing here for the next three weeks, or why is everyone in France shopping here today? We secure a parking space in the back rows and two minutes later we are in the French Centro O with hundreds of shops! Where is the Carrefour? We fight through the crowds and luckily find the huge supermarket after a short time! Quickly in and, if possible, quickly out! Quickly put everything in the cart and off to the checkout. People are lining up here and when a new checkout opens, people almost fight... we are speechless and seem to get a short impression of home... oh noooo...!

We make it out unscathed and then stand obediently in line to leave this chaos. Quickly back on the highway!

After a short time, the good weather is over and we drive into a gray wall of fog! We can't see all of Luxembourg and we can't see the road in front of us either! But people are driving like crazy here... the next taste of home... oh noooo...!

The fog doesn't let up and the small country road that leads to the campsite is completely covered... but we still find it and arrive at a spot by the river at 5:30 p.m. We coincidentally meet someone since the reception is not manned and can check in right away. We are completely alone here, no other campers to be seen far and wide.

While we devour fresh sushi for dinner, we can't believe that our trip is almost over! Tomorrow we will head back to the land of potatoes and our mission will be almost accomplished. We will slowly approach home and first visit my mother in Heinsberg and stay there for two nights, then go to my sister's and finally head towards Velbert. Like on the way there... just suddenly six months later the other way around... unbelievable! We don't want to go home until the middle of the week...!

But for now, goodnight Luxembourg!
