Since we still don't know whether our "European Vacation" will be 3 years or 3 months, we are making the most of our time right now, especially while we have the long days of summer sunlight. You'd think we were actually on a vacation to be able to be in 5 countries in a short period of time but my husband is actually working during the week and I've done some work remotely from here as well. Fortunately from where we are geographically situated here, driving to different countries is similar to driving to different states in the US.
Starting on July 14th, we went to Strasbourg, France, befitting because it was Bastille Day.
The next day we headed south and decided to venture into Switzerland where we spent the day strolling around Schaffhausen. I will have to tell more about Schaffhausen and how it was serendipity to wind up there.
The next weekend we left on a Friday and made a long weekend out of driving to Vienna, Austria with a stop in Salzburg on the way home. We could have driven not quite 90 more kilometers east to Bratislava, Slovakia and added one more country to our list, but we decided it would take time out of seeing Austria, so we chose not to go.
This past weekend we drove to Luxembourg City, Luxembourg and stayed overnight.
I have pictures from all of these places and plan to post them here and on Flickr, with a little commentary about where we visited.
You definitely made the right choice going to Luxembourg for the weekend. The PA went out so Alice Cooper was delayed ~30 minutes and then there a big downpour as soon as he took the stage. lol
