Europe 11 Jun 14 Riquewihr and Colmar


Day 6 - The Alsace wine route, Riquewihr and Colmar. An early start and a short 30km drive down the Alsace wine route (only getting lost once) for brunch (tarte oignon - delicious) in Riquewihr, getting there just before the hordes of tourists descended. This is a real chocolate-box village and it was a delight to wander around, plus we took a ride on the little tourist train. We then moved on again to Colmar which is a much bigger place. We looked at the aire, but it was very noisy and not very pleasant so we pitched up at the campsite, had a bit of a sort out, then took the bus into town. It was another incredibly hot day, so we found a cafe by the cathedral with a lovely breeze blowing to cool us down and we sat and people watched for a while before taking the bus back to the site for dinner.
