alana goes away

me gals accidentally in Germany one of my fav photos ive ever taken, randomly Fun fact, someone from Luxembourg is called a Luxembourger, or within the country, Bourgers. Something I never knew I would be excited to know. I wish I was a Bourger. Anywho, for the second May bank holiday some gals and I had booked a trip to Luxembourg. It was super cheap, something like £49 return I think. Well, cheap for a long weekend anyway. We left at Friday about lunchtime, and after a super quick turnaround at Luxembourg airport (it's very small and straightforward) we were on the bus (€2) to the city centre. The airbnb we had booked was a 15 min walk from where we hopped off, and was super easy to find, on a little square called Edouard Andre, which has a cute lil fountain in its middle. The lady who's house we were borrowing was just leaving (she was an actual pixie I swear) and gave us some recommendations for p...

A rental car full of snacks, people, and music. Joy. I was in the drivers seat to take us to Swansea, or rather, Pennard which is near Swansea. Google said 3.5hours, so we planned for 4, with London Friday night traffic. Sam was on the motorbike and we were meeting some other friendos at the house, and we had a walk planned for the next day. The walk we had chosen was Three Cliffs Bay, about a four hour round trip. The weather forecast was kind of grey and...

Day 2 of the solo-yolo  No one kill me for using that 'solo-yolo' please, it just fits. So anyway, for this day I wanted to head down to Lucerne, which is an hours train ride from Basel. The weather forecast was pretty bleak, but was slightly 'better' down in Lucerne, that is a rain/11 degree high for Basel, and an 8/no rain for Lucerne. It was meant to be nice in Basel again on the Monday, so away we go. Again with the last minute transport bookings, I'd recommend planning ahead and probably booking in advance. I'm not sure if they have the same pre-booking discounts as in London, but it was £48 return which is preeeeettty steep so I'm assuming they would. But hey, that's that. I'd hoped there would be a break in the low foggy cloud so I'd get some Alp action, and perhaps even go up Mt Pilatus (-1 and snowing that day...hmmm) but sadly the foggyness didn't lift so I guess I'll have to head back there one...
