Strasbourg

This is a cool town – . We did our AirTag bike ride and a 3 hour walking tour. Colleen has been really great all vacation – It is amazing that she was hardly walking before we left.

The name Strasbourg is pronounced “Straws” “Boor” (like poor). It is really French with a huge Bavarian background. It doesn’t look like the war touched much – probably this was taken by Germany very early in the war as it is right on the border

There is a canal that goes around the whole main old town. There are bridges every few blocks. There are a couple sets of locks to go up and down the waterways.

I keep marvelling at the infrastructure in Europe. The tram system here is very modern. These towns with old buildings have the most modern transportation – trams and metros. I don’t know how they can afford to build these things. We can’t even get an LRT to the airport. They have these old buildings and the super modern bike lanes and bikes.
