8th April 2010 - Strasbourg (Bicycles, Babies and Brioche)

Arriving in Strasbourg was easy - finding the hostel was not. A nice Strasbourg man seeing we were lost started pointing us down a road which we did drive halfway down before realising it was a one way street he then beeped us endlessley until we reversed back out. Did eventually find our very nice hostel with it's secret courtyard car park and went out wandering for the day.

The Gothic Notre Dame Cathedral was stunning and huge, the highlight although we couldn't go up to the top which would have been a brilliant do something once a day that scares you. Walked along the river Ill amongst the pretty black and white timber houses in the Petite-France district and ended the day drinking beer watching the river boats and ducks floating by.



Mat Stats:
Notre Dame - 6th tallest cathedral in the world
