Dear Grand Duchy of Luxembourg,
I am very keen to visit Luxembourg this autumn as part of my mini world tour 2008. As an amateur anthropomerist, my aim is to visit a selection of the smallest countries in the world and find out just what it is about them that makes them so small. I understand that Luxembourg is the sixth smallest country and that your head of state, Sir Henri the Grand Duke, is also one of the world's smallest leaders. This bodes very well for my research trip! I have found a lot of information about coming to your country on your website but I have a few more questions before I leave:
(1) What is the biggest size suitcase I can bring?
(2) Is the chairlift in Vianden open to people like me who have trouble sitting down?
(3) I would like to learn a few Luxembourg phrases so I can speak to the locals in their own language. I would like to be able to say:
(a) Hallo, my name is Gerry and I shall be honoured to dine with you in your castle.
(b) If it is not too much trouble, how many pants make a dozen?
(c) Thank you for your hospitality, I think I need to lie down now.
I hope you are able to help me with my questions and I look forward to booking my holiday soon.
Kind regards,
Gerry Howell
