We woke quite late, I popped a few blog entries on then we got ready and bibbed off on the scooter for the 35 minute (non-motorway route) to Luxembourg city…
Dave just put “Luxembourg Centre” into Google Maps so we ended up in the newer financial section of town where he then took us into an underground parking lot 🤷♀️ where we then realised motorbikes and scooters weren’t allowed…
We couldn’t turn around & go back so he then had to drive AROUND the IN-barrier, drive to the exit and then drive AROUND the OUT-barrier 😳 (he knows how to keep me on my toes !!! 😂)
I suggested that he pull over and type in “Gëlle Fra” (Golden Lady) so we’d get where I wanted us to go and 6 minutes later we were parking up 😅
“Gëlle Fra” is a 21 metre tall obelisk with a Golden Lady statue on the top – which was erected in 1923 to honour all of the thousands of Luxembourgers who volunteered for service in the armed forces during both World Wars – and lost their lives…
