Mulhouse. NE France
Beaune to Mulhouse by our hire car. GPS took 3 goes to find hotel! Beautiful town centre - this cathedral took pride of place, but those people, sitting, drinking wine - a French evening. Now in San Francisco, so a little behind - takes about 2 hours to publish one of these blogs, even after selecting the photos, and we are sight seeing, furiously. Only a week to go.
The cruise started unpredictably - river low due to lack of rain - found out on day of embarkation that boat was NOT at Basel, but downstream at Strasbourg - we had tickets so still caught train to Basel, then waited 4 hours for bus at jetty, then the 2 hour drive to Strasbourg. After boarding it was explained that River Authority had ordered the boat further downstream (or spend the week in Stasbourg). Overnight cruise to Mannheim, then 2hr bus back to Strasbourg for the scheduled tour. From then on the cruise was as per schedule, and we loved it.
Unseasonal fine weather continued and warmer clothes remained clean, if not slightly squashed & wrinkled.
Our tours became an information feast - sometimes too much, but often, fascinating. Scenery beautiful.
Cheers from Jan & Garry
