And now to France...

It is nice being in France because at least I can communicate a little....I am always happy being in la belle France and it feels very comfortable being there....let's have coffee and then go out and see what's out there, d'accord?

A few blocks out and I spy a flea market...let's have a look...


I always MUST look thru the old postcards...

Old coins, old currency, postcards, stamps, letters.....
what's not to like?




If you see this guy, follow him....trust me....he knows ALL the best places to go...

Inspiration is everywhere....even the soap looks beautiful...



La Poste has bikes all over...I was tempted to take one for a spin but I thought better of it..


It wasn't easy to keep up the travel journal with all the excitement but I did it.
Needed a pastry for energy after all that walking...

Feeding the La Poste mailbox...

This was just a brief look at Strasbourg -- a really lovely city in France -- lots to see and do and much fun to be had.  Museums, great restaurants and bakeries, beautiful old buildings, outdoor food markets, flea markets, cafes, amazing churches....You might want to put it on your list!

  1. What an amazing visit, albeit rather short. I was so impressed with all those postcards and photos. I fear this is another place where I would have spent a small fortune! Even the pastry looked delicious.

  2. I love France, too! We were there in October--our first trip. It's so beautiful, the food is wonderful, and the people were consistently nice and helpful. If I could speak fluent French I'd live there. But the lovely people don't like you to butcher their language (that's why they're so willing to speak English if they can).
