Speaking of destiny. The University of Miami Ohio has hosted Guillaume more than once in the last year. The schools French program offers a semester or two at one of Luxembourg's academy's. You stay with a Luxembourg family and go to school at the same cost as going to Miami Ohio. I applied there 2 years ago but couldn't come up with $20,000 a year.:(
...........
 
how many did compete for this country and has any royal competet for Luxembourg

So there were only 10 athletes competing for Luxembourg? That is a good number for such a small country.:p Thank you drimal for all the photos. I especially loved the pictures of them altogether as a family. :)
 
I'm not sure if this pic has been posted before - I hope not :) It has the whole family!!!

I actually laugh when I see that photo because they're all looking in different directions, and it's like, surely the athletes they're watching are in the same spot. They look like they're watching a Quidditch match...
