I have recently had the chance to visit the wonderful little country of Luxembourg, where I stayed in the spa town of Mondorf (les Bains).

I realised that Luxembourg is not such a small country (surface area) as one might think, especially compared to the other "small countries" or "city states" of Europe. This country offers a wonderful array of landscapes consisting of rolling hills covered by lush forests, vineyards and pastures, quaint towns and villages overlooked by medieval castles perched high above on rocky outcrops. Needless to say, it has grown on me.

This was a quiet little place on the way up from the town to the village church. I found the atmosphere of the place inviting to contemplation. I find it is also relevant to this special occasion of the Holy Good Friday, celebrated today by those of the Roman Catholic faith.

Best Wishes and Happy Easter to All!
Bonnes Fêtes de Paques à Tous!
Fröhliche Ostern Euch Allen!
Schéin Oustren!
