Binder Family Travel Adventures

Follow along as the Binder Family travels around learning new things

Today we took a train ride over to Colmar (not Cologne despite how many times Matthew said that today) to take in the sites, it did not disappoint. It was a small town and far too crowded by the afternoon, but was very cute and worth the stop.

Since we were in little Venice, we had to take a boat ride.

We had to duck under that bridge.
See all the locks on the bridge? Here’s another angle of them, this was the bridge that had the most, but all the bridges had them.
This is the smallest house here. There is no ground floor.
Just some fun sculptures in the park….had to take a picture!

We had lunch, and bought cookies and caramels. As it turns out, the macaroons in France are way better than what you get in the US.

We also took a little train tour around Colmar, but the city is so small we saw all the sites anyway. But it was nice to sit down for a little bit.

After a full day of exploring Colmar, we trained back to Strasbourg, walked around some more, took some pictures from the top of the covered bridge.

We saw a tour boat fitting through the lock- it’s a tight squeeze!!

Then for dinner, we ate local food. We tried (some of us for the first time) frog legs and also had escargot.

And one last lap past the cathedral before going back to the room to rest for the night.

    nice! Looks like you guys are having a good time. Lucy is fine, she doesn’t stay out for long periods of time, crazy heat wave we’re having here. So were the frog legs as good as mine?

      We are having fun and enjoying all the sights.
      That’s good, I didn’t think she would go far.
      They were pretty good, little David ate them with me & said he wants to try yours now.
