We had planned to spend the morning sightseeing in Brussels but the driving and parking become increasingly difficult (and stressful) so we abandoned the idea. The roads were made of large uneven 'cobblestone' type material that had your teeth rattling as you drove along and they were anything but flat. You could see the road rippling up and down in front of you. First time we had felt sea- sick in a car. We did however manage a very quick visit to this statue "Manneken Pis". This peeing boy is billed as the top tourist attraction in town. Apparently he has had 8000 sets of clothed donated to him. Given it was 4th July he was appropriately dressed for the day.
Learning from this experience we left our Luxembourg site seeing to the evening when the traffic was quieter. Luxembourg was a very pretty place.
It also seemed pretty laid back. We were tempted to join these movie goers except our camp ground shut at 10 pm.
Given the opportunity I would definitely visit Luxembourg again (and not just because you can buy Mumm champagne at the service station for €24.99).
