Day 68 - Amsterdam to Luxembourg via Bastogne - Tuesday

We retrieved the car out of the underground car park, loaded up and set out for Luxembourg, three hours later we were out of Amsterdam....... no just kidding!  The sat nav wanted to keep sending us around the canals but we finally broke free and hit the highway. 400 kms, easy drive ..... we wanted to drive through the Ardenne so we changed the route slightly and got off the motorway and drove through the forests ending up with a picnic.

 The Ardenne Region                                                      Picnic in the forest

 

Here we are at the picnic supplied by the Amsterdam Hotel, or rather the 4 breakfasts we had....

 

 The forest near Bastogne....    maybe a shell hole in the 2nd picture ..... maybe not!

 

First pictures of Luxembourg City taken on the iPhone on a slightly rainy night

 

Dinner at a French Restaurant, although we are outside it does have heaters,  lamb shanks and rice pudding

yum...........
