One day after being present in 3 countries at once ๐ , on 21st December, I, Mu and Yanto took a combo trip to 3 cities: Luxembourg, Brugge, Bruxelles (again). We took a direct train from Kรถln to Luxembourg city, travel around, and stayed for a night in a youth hostel.
Luxembourg – the big map
Luxembourg city has so many bridges. We could hardly distinguish the bridges.
Luxembourg – peace….
Luxembourg – the many-bridges city of Luxembourg ๐
Luxembourg – where’s the other guy?
And another cool thing about Luxembourg city is that it has many internet hot-spots surrounding the city.
Luxembourg – the internet hostpot’s access point
After getting tired wandering around the town, we had our dinner in a Chinese restaurant (what? why the hell should we eat Chinese food in Luxembourg?). Yeah, it’s because of the very high price of traditional restaurant. Just imagine, it’s about โฌ25 for a dinner ๐ฆ But no regret since we had had a traditional food for our lunch ๐
Early in the morning, we headed straight to the central station, and took a train to Brugge (in Belgium). It was very cold, I saw a thermometer at the sidewalk: it’s -7 ยฐC ๐ฆ
Brugge is quite famous for its canal crossing the city. But the canals were all frozen ๐
Brugge – the frozen canal of Brugge ๐
Brugge – captain Dafferianto….
Brugge – the city square
Brugge – lost in Brugge?
Before going to a hostel for a night, we went to an ice museum (I forgot the name). So beautiful….
Brugge – hey ho…. I’m gonna slide down fasstttt…..
Brugge – howdy….
Brugge – don’t follow these 2 devils…. ๐
Brugge – instead, follow Dafferianto the sailor man…. ๐
O: You went there? ๐

@xkawaii:
I see. Yes, I enjoyed Bruxelles and Brugge very much. BUt unfortunately the canals were frozen back then in Brugge ๐ฆ Maybe I’ll go there again some other times.
In which city are you currently living?
I’d also like to visit Ghent and Leuven, but my time currently is fully-utilized with deadlines ๐ฆ
Beste Grรผรe,

You sure you want to visit Belgium again? ๐
The weather is really terrible over here,xD/
Gent and Leuven.. Both university Cities.
Well, there sure is a lot to do there ๐
Did you see the Atomium?

@xkawaii:
Hi Tanya, (I hope I spell your name right ๐ )
I see… I haven’t been to Antwerp yet, but I’d like to go there one day ๐ I checked Antwerp’s tourism website, the city looks nice.
Yeah sure, I really enjoyed Bruxelles & Brugge. About the weather, maybe in the summer it would be best ๐
When I went to Atomium, I went to the top. The view was awesome.
Beste Grรผรe,
Dafferianto
@Dafferianto
Yes, you did spell it right. ๐
Did you see the fireworks?
x. Tanya
@xkawaii:
Was there any firework show? I didn’t see it ๐ฆ

hi … i was doing a web search for lux city to brugge and came across your site. thanks for the post and the pictures. do you recall how long and the cost of the ticket from lux to brugge was? we’re thinking of taking 3 days for the trip before coming back to lux city for other events. THANKS!
@emily:
Hi,
Thanks for visiting my blog (which unfortunately can’t be updated regularly).
I apologize that I can’t remember about the trip duration and the ticket price. But you can probably check at http://www.b-rail.be for the schedules and the prices.
Wish you a wonderful trip (since it’s summer, I bet it’s very beautiful there….).
Regards,
Dafferianto
@Anita
Thank you for visiting my blog.
Well, I think wandering around during autumn is still better compared to winter there. Yes, I think late October is awesome. Don’t hesitate ๐
I didn’t really visit every sightseeing spot since it was a very short trip and somehow very “ad-hoc” ๐ . But if you plan from now, you should be able to arrange things much better though.
PS. Iya nih, Indonesia tanah air beta ๐
all the best,
Dafferianto
Aww many thanks for your help!
However I have seen some videos of Lux City in November in Youtube.. not amused ๐ So probably gonna go to Lisbon instead after Brugge+Gent.. I know it is GREAT change but I hv promised my mom a nice holiday so its best go to to a warmer place.
Salam,
Anita
@Anita:
I haven’t been to Lisbon yet. Well, maybe some other times then ๐
Have a good trip planning!
Salam,
Dafferianto
