Arrival in Strasbourg

Train from Zurich to Basel was an easy trip, we were getting the hang of using the passes and although we had to use data in Switzerland to update a ticket, which cost is a small fortune, we arrived in Basel and with Adia asking for directions perfectly in German to a person in information, we found our TGV train and settled down to move into France and on towards Strasbourg.

Temperature was crazy hot as we arrived in Strasbourg and as usual we were laden down with our bags. We just hoped our accommodation was better than it was in Switzerland. Andrew was low in sugar as we arrived in Strasbourg and we therefore had an emergency McDonald’s. We still had over three hours to wait until check in so after a phone call with the big lad using his best French we manage to move this forward and sat outside in a Cafe as we awaited check in.

Last accommodation was basic and extremely small, but better than the stalag. Pleased to be in Strasbourg we ventured out into La Petit France and eventually got something to eat. Champagne, wine and some good food we went back to the digs and to prepare for some days in AlsaceWeiterlesen
