Brussells was pretty, the Grand Place was actually just around the corner from our hotel... Only found it cos we we're looking for a nice place for a coffee.

Ian drove from Brussels to Nurburg.

Stopped at Bastogne for lunch, found a nice Sherman tank.

Apparently some kind of war happened there in 1944, didn't really want to ask as thought it maybe rude. Then entered Luxembourge which I must say is very pretty. Stopped for lunch just past some place with a nice castle.

Diet so far... Bread, Cheese, Pork products and beer.

Went cross country to Nurburg, found the road was blocked and we had to go off piste. TomTom was having a laugh. We now know a Mercedes 300SE is an off road vehicle.

Finally made it to Nurburg... Found the Grand Prix circuit but not the Nordschleife.
After much driving about finally found it at 18:45. Paid 22 Euro for a lap and Kipper drove us around the scariest race track ever.

It was very quiet, thank god, and we managed 13 min and 27 secs. Not bad for 3 up fully loaded with luggage... The tyres were particularly tacky when we finished. Oh yeah, not supposed to say we were overtaken by a van...

Oops missed the carousel... other cars beat us to it, but they did wave in amusement!

Made the second carousel

Bagpuss does the Nurburgring

We survived..

Stayed in Nurburg village, very clean and efficient.
