    Awesome, great time of year to go. I used a LUMIX GH5 on a tripod to capture the stars. I also used our DJI Pocket 3 to create one of the Timelapse’s but it’s a bit more grainy than the GH5’s long exposures. I would only recommend taking your photography gear if you were interested in night photography or you just wanted to give it a go! ☺️

    Luxembourg is another excellent recommendation; strikingly picturesque with the perfect blend of old and new built around stunning hills and viaducts. Free public transport is a nice bonus, so getting around the city and to other smaller towns in the country (such as Ettelbruck and Vianden) is much easier, although you'll still need to use your pass to cross borders on the train. Yes, it's expensive, but you can easily stay overnight in Metz (eastern France has good hotel prices generally) across the border, which is a quieter prettier version of Paris. TER trains are very frequent between the cities and take less than an hour, no reservations.

    @@cjexplores you can either get the Belgian IC trains from Brussels or Leige, or if you're going from Germany, there's the Regional Express service (using CFL double deckers) from Koblenz (a city between Köln and Frankfurt). Neither use reservations and all three services are hourly (slow but scenic), so these are excellent ways to get into the country. Of course the frequent (like, 3 trains per hour) TER from Metz (which I actually prefer over Paris) is the reservation-free way to get in from France. If you prefer something fast, the TGV from Paris has the same reservation fee as domestic TGVs so that's a worthwhile option too.

    Can’t quite tell from the vid, but did you get your springs uprated to take the extra weight? If not, I strongly suggest you do - it’ll be way safer to drive, and will handle better. Trust me, I use to work on car suspension.

  • @cjexplores

    Hi Martyn 👋🏼 thanks for your comment. We did not get different springs installed. But tbh our rooftop system was super lightweight - being inflatable, and I’d be surprised if the rest of our build weighed more than that of 2 grown adults in the backseat… we didn’t have any noticeable issues with handling, but then again if we upgraded the springs we might have noticed something!
