Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Reims

First off, I want to bring up the meal we had on our first night here. We called and made a reservation (in French!) at a place in the 1st Arrondissement (district) called "Adreinne's" (Adrienne's). It was so cute! It was an intimate little place with two levels, but where we were on the first level, there were only 4 tables. They had a prix fixe …

Fájó szívvel vettünk búcsút kedves házigazdáinktól és remek szállásunktól Berghofban, de tovább kellett indulnunk mert az igazi úticélunk még igen messze volt. Reimsig az út alapvetően eseménytelenül telt, bár több helyen munkálatok és/vagy dugó lassította haladásunkat. Ez mondjuk különösen a 6%-os emelkedőn, kamionok között igazán …

I went to Reims on the second day of my French exchange, it was a lovely place, but I can honestly say that there wasn't much to do there. I bought a German military shirt from a retro shop, and we saw a couple of sights, but otherwise it was on okay day …

The French countryside is stunning, canola filled fields spread out in a sea of yellow as far as the eye can see. And there are hundreds of solar windmills. We noticed everywhere we went there was an abundance of French flags proudly flying and as we …

It is one pm on Friday the 13th and we are in our hotel in Reims awaiting our apointment with Jauns' relatives at the House of Krug Champagne. But first to yesterday. Went to Place de la Concorde on the metro and walked the western end of the Jardin de Tuileries. Then went to the Musee L'Orangerie. Jauns was happy to find a Claude Debussy …

Up early this morning, brekky in our room (thanks to finding that supermarket yesterday) before heading off bright and early to Gare de Lyon to get the Metro to the tour company's offices at the Louvre. But no, buses were replacing trains on our line this morning - a common Sunday thing apparently. We ventured out to where the buses should be but …
