Lux to Strasbourg - Day 6

A brief walk around Luxembourg starting with the terrace in back of our hotel. We stumbled upon “Kaddish,” a statue in remembrance of the 1,244 known jews (plus 200+ unknown jews) deported and exterminated in the holocaust. Kaddish is both a prayer in remembrance of the deceased and an affirmation of life, faith and the greatness of God. The artist was 14 when sent to the camps and survived two death marches.

Strasbourg. Rain yesterday (when we weren’t here) but all sunshine today. We walked in the steps of our good friends Jamie and Ed to claim the beauty of this popular city and the commencement of our Alsace journey. Home to Gutenberg (grandfather of Anime), great Riesling, choucroute and tarte flambée.

We walked all the way to Petite France and back, with crowds of Germans, French and many families. Very festive.

Tomorrow we have a three hour walking tour to better immerse ourselves.Read more
