Nice coffee shop in Strasbourg



There are so many nice cafes and cake places everywhere in this town. This one was in front of our hotel and good for picking up coffee. Cute slogan.

Strasbourg



Everyone says it is pretty and has a mideval feel, and indeed it is such a lovely city! The buildings look so Swiss cottage and maintained so perfectly. The food is great as it is France. And the cathedral (apparently took some 6 generations to complete) is a good mix of those in Barcelona, Cologne and Florence (but I never knew of this humble cathedral). We visited a Swedish couple friend last weekend, who literally has the best life quality ever in Strasbourg (location, quality of food, joint maternity/paternity leave, friendliest baby, super nice apartment, the list goes on).

It is also such a luxury to be in a foreign country in a 2-hour car ride. I look forward to coming back and shopping next time (shops were closed on Sunday).




The famous lock.

Frankfurt's fall is not so bad

 
I thought this summer became winter too soon, but this week has seen the best of Frankfurt's leaves. Not bad at all!
