We are on our way to discover World War I. The purpose of this trip is
to visit the mayor battlefields and try to imagine the madness of this
war which costs millions their lives and had new inventions like the
airplane, zeppelin, tank, automatic weapons, gas attacks caused the
collapse of 4 empires (Russia, Germany, Turkey and Austria), changed
the map of the world and started - in the end WW II. June 28 1914 Franz
Ferdinand was killed in Sarajevo and already August 4 the German troops
entered -neutral- Belgium. We will follow the troops and battles. So
moving from east to west and then south.

We had an extra day in Gulpen, so decided to head to Clervaux in Luxembourg to see the exhibition 'Familiy of Man' at Chateaux Clervaux. This is a collection of great photos put together by Edward Steichen, curator of the MoMa in the 1940s. It traveled all around the globe attrackting millions of people before settling down here at the chateaux. It was a great trip to - passing the highest peak in Belgium and riding through forrests and valleys.

We started our World War I motor trip today by riding to Maastricht and
attend the VIP opening of The European Fine Art Fair.As usual: this is
the place to be. To see other people and to be seen. Maastricht airport
is full with private jets - all hotels are fully booked and on the
parkings deck of the MECC no car under the 100.000 euro is to be seen.
People dress up and for a couple of hours the financial crisis seem not
the exist...
Eddie and I where a little underdressed in our motor gear - but not so
badly dressed as most in ill fitting cheap suits and dresses ;-)
We especially liked the statue of Telemachos at our old friend Robert Bowman. We are still in touch whether to aquire this. Late at night we returned to our hotel at Gulpen.

This ugly guy is Helg Sgarbi (44) and he is accused of seducing Germany’s
richest woman, making a secret video of them having passionate sex in a
hotel bedroom.  The woman is of course 46-year-old Susanne Klatten (worth around £8.5 billion), amongst other things he told her that he needed Euros 7 million because he had injured a
little girl in a car crash in Florida. Mrs Klatten complied and handed over
the cash in the hotel’s underground car park.WHY???
Next time you need a friend Susanne: call me! ;-)

You would expect that a movie about a dog is a sort of Disney Trash, but this story is actually worthwhile to watch. Owen Wilson plays -as usual- himself and is really good at it. And if you still don't want to have a dog after this movie there is something serious;y wrong with you.
