... losing over € 80,-- instead of possibly only € 20,-- when my friend chose not to eat. Quelle domage!

Happily we managed to spent what we weren't able to consume at the next market!

I would not go back to Ribeauville, yes to Kayserberg! Although, I must admit that this was not my first time to this area, the landscape is delightful, the food however was surprisingly mediocre everytime we ate out. Would love some insider recommendations.

Featured Excursion: Full-day tour along the Alsatian Wine Road

"Leaving Strasburg we head for a famous road, the Alsatian wine route, which hugs the foothills of the Vosges Mountains. Charming villages and lush vineyards, producing great white wines, line this winding ...

... where we were to sample another Alsacien tradition – baeckaoffa – a stew of pork, lamp and beef simmered in sylvaner wine, layered with vegetables. A hearty country dish faced our jaded pallets. After a few glasses of sylvaner we were braced for anything, although we were not ready for what happened next. The waiting staff started to bring in large casseroles and set them on a nearby table. The casseroles kept ...

Otra vez en Francia. En la rivera del alto Rhin Colmar es un ejemplo de ciudad medieval bien conservada, con casas de entramado estilo alsaciano y canales llenos de vida. Conserva perfectamente el ambiente urbano de las ciudades centroeuropeas que nacieron alrededor de las rutas comerciales.

... knockoff (Ghost Castle), complete with talking statue heads, the ballroom, bulging and banging doors, etc. There was the It’s A Small World water boat idea (Ciao Bambini) with little bears singing. The Pirates of the Caribbean was represented by Pirates in Batavia. You know where the jailed men are coaxing over the dog with the keys? Same thing, except the key-bearer in this version was a ...

... for dear life John moved very slowly across as pedestrians slowly got out of the way. People .were floating down the river on rafts and it was a vantage point. After the bridge was just as bad with a one lane road sharply zigzagging up the hill!! apparently there is an easier way and though the hotel have complained to the gps people nothing has happened.
Gerzensee has views towards the mountains, sheep ...

... charming village and great fun to explore.

The sun was starting to sink behind the vinyard-covered hills, so we hopped in the car and made our way to our final destination of the day - Vieil-Armand. 20 kilometres up a windy hill (good thing I like roller coasters!) is the Vieil-Armand WWI memorial. Unfortunately, we arrived as darkness was setting in. I was determined to see the memorial ...

... really mean, and enjoyed failing people and all that jazz. basically he was built up as real scary. so Alice asked one of the german students if he was a bit of a nazi. she caught her words real quick and apologised, how embarassing.

anyway i'm in a line iwth Simba at europapark, ready to go on a swedish louge-style ride. i needed to go to the toilet, so simba would hold my spot in line while i ran back. when i got back there were lots of ...

Today we toured the Council of Europe. They focus on human rights and not the economy like the European Union does. After that we shopped. Most of us choose Mc Donald's for lunch! One of my favorite meals since I've been here. Then we shopped. 4 of us bought Swarski necklaces. Then we went to the Chateua and napped. For supper we had pink pork, mushrooms, and plain noodles. It isn't agreeing well with some of us... We miss normal food....

... while there were potential customers. We explained to my mom that unlike in the US where 'the customer is always right', people balance their work life with their personal life. While this sometimes equals poor service, it is also somewhat refreshing and Julie and I have begun to really like the way of life. So while there was money to be made by keeping the hotel kitchen open, the hotel has decided that Mondays are closed no matter whether it is tourist season or not. After ...
