LUXEMBOURG EXPATS

From: Patricia da Silva

The new Légère Premium Hotel Luxembourg will be showing the Games in their Lounge Bar CUBE.  It would be great to have a good group together to watch the opening of the World Cup, let me know if you are interested to join.

The hotel is situated in a very prime position just off the highway so is easy accessible for everyone.

Please pass on to anyone you think might be interested.  We have had a good response so far.
