We have bought tickets for Sat. at the Bastogne War Museum. They are 20,- Euros p.P. and the cheapest option to see the actors.

Hotel situation is quite bad. Within 15 km distance is every single bed sold out. We will stay now at Houffalize, that's 20 km north of Bastogne.

So if someone want's to be there: hurry up!

Keep 'em Rolling,

Question(s):
