Somehow I managed to persuade Claire that we should take a trip through the vineyards of the Alsace. We started this morning by catching the train to Basel before taking the gentle (i.e. FLAT) trip of 43 miles over 3hrs to Vogelgrun (just East of Colmar) along canals and through the (soon to be) typical Alsatian villages. Vogelgrun may not be high on a list of places to visit but it sits on the Ile du Rhin, allowing us to walk across the river to Germany for a beer in the town of Breisach Am Rhein.
