Strasbourg

The first step (kick) into France is taken. I roll over the bridge that crosses the Rhine and I am in France. Little by little I have to get used to the basic things: Right-before-left rule, behaviour at zebra crossings....

Jeffrey* and I roll past the European Parliament and then follow the Canal de la Marne au Rhin out of the city.
It was once the longest canal in France, with several locks and a total length of over 300km. It connected the Moselle with the Rhine and had great economic importance at that time. Nowadays, it is mainly houseboats that lie at anchor.

In the evening we arrive at Jeffrey's* and Amelia's* favourite meadow near Berthelming and set up camp.
