The start of a new summer

The start of a new summer

The days are getting longer, temperatures are finally rising. Evenings are milder, and here and there the delicious scent of sausages and grilled meats emanates. The start of summer is finally here in Luxembourg, and we’re all delighted.

Summer and outdoor activities

The whole family and the neighborhood will have fun and challenge each other with humor in this original street chalk drawing contest! Young and old alike will have the opportunity to showcase their creative talents. Neighbors from adjacent streets will even join in the fun. Temperatures remain mild even after sunset. Some of the teens have brought out their water guns and are on a masterful chase until they disappear into the darkness. The adults take advantage of the occasion to organize an aperitif, in moderation, while keeping an eye on the little ones. A real moment of sharing that feels good at the end of winter and a spring that was rather capricious.

A few blocks away, we witnessed a boule game battle. It’s hot! Concentration is the order of the day, and silence is the watchword until the next point is scored. The new generation defends itself well against the experience of the “old hands”: the scores are close. A gentle breeze grazes the faces, a sweet reward after the day’s high temperatures. All that’s missing is the song of the crickets and the pastis to make us feel like we’re in the southern Mediterranean!

As we stroll along at the end of the day, we come across a group of rollerbladers, whom we say hello to. Runners and cyclists follow: the outdoor sports season is well and truly underway. Walkers, ice cream in hand, also enjoy the pleasant weather, chatting away. The municipal pools are ready to welcome you for the season. If you prefer your own peace and quiet, here’s a selection of pools to install in your own home. It’s a great way to cool off in a heatwave, and a great way to make friends if you’ve got kids of your own!

Prepare your summer wardrobe

It’s time to get dressed up for summer. A pretty, lightweight dress for Madame? With a pair of fabulous sandals, a sublime hat or scarf, this refined yet casual look is sure to delight!

For the gentleman, Letzshop.lu’s local retailers are also in the starting-blocks: a patterned T-shirt or a short-sleeved polo shirt will be a perfect accompaniment to these delightful trousers. Children are also entitled to their own fashion, with this line of handmade clothes designed with them in mind.

Early summer opens the door to travel

Some people prefer to get away before the summer rush. By car for some, or by plane for others, to reach a sunny destination during the summer vacations.

Disconnecting after months of dullness and the work-bouchons-dodo routine is essential for our equilibrium. Reservations are well underway, no pun intended! The accessory you’ll need to pack before anything else is, of course, your swimsuit.

Our team’s advice? Prepare a checklist now, so you don’t forget anything on D-day!
