Wednesday, 25th September 2019 – Sankt Peter, Breisach, Ihringen A late breakfast in the Hotel Schlossmühle was very good, though they did try to insist we should have an egg each, and then I had a suggestion or two that met with Lynne’s approval for what we should do with the day. First I wanted…

Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 12, Mulhouse, Riquewihr, Glottertal
Tuesday, 24th September 2019 – Mulhouse, Riquewihr, Glottertal And so, on the Tuesday, we got up, repacked the car, and set off away from Mulhouse, aiming at Riquewihr based on two things, the guidebook to the Alsace Wine Route that we’d bought and the direction we wanted to head in later on. Riquewihr had been…
Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 11, Mulhouse
Monday, 23nd September 2019 – Mulhouse Monday was mostly all about cars, so if they don’t interest you, you may want to look away now! When I was running the day before I got a good look at some of the neighbourhood, and while I was cooling down afterwards I took a few photos of…
Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 10, Mulhouse
Sunday, 22nd September 2019 – Mulhouse I started the morning with a run around the very quiet streets surrounding the apartment. The weather was still fine and sunny, despite forecasts suggesting that was about to change (it didn’t) and discovered both the hideous concrete monstrosity that is the nearby church, and also the whereabouts of…
Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 9, Colmar, Turckheim, Eguisheim, Rouffach, Mulhouse
Saturday, 21st September 2019 – Colmar, Turckheim, Eguisheim, Rouffach, Mulhouse Saturday morning I got up early and then headed out before breakfast to buy some supplies from the market. We were moving on from our lovely hotel where everything arrived as if by magic, and would now be self catering for three nights. Thus we…
Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 8, Colmar
Friday, 20th September 2019 – Colmar Friday was entirely dedicated to Colmar, and establishing beyond any shadow of a doubt that it is stunningly, breathtakingly beautiful. A run for me first thing meant that I saw up close some of the Bartholdi monuments that I’d seen designs and models for the day before, and then…
Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 6, Illkirchen, Orschwiller, Colmar
Wednesday, 17th September 2019 – Illkirchen, Château du Haut-KÅ“nigsbourg, Colmar Wednesday morning, with even more insect bites decorating both of us, we got ready to check out and move on. I’d been for a run before breakfast and stopped off at the rather odd park near one of the tram stops. For reasons I couldn’t…
Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 4, Strasbourg
Monday, 16th September 2019 – Strasbourg We had a relatively early start because we’d booked, through AirBnB, to go on a food tour of Strasbourg. I got up even earlier than that though, because I wanted to go for a run. My running schedule has fallen apart recently and I was keen to get back…
Travel 2019 – Alsace and Baden, Day 3, Boppard, Schloss Rheinfels, Illkirch
Sunday 15th September 2019 – Boppard, Schloss Rheinfels, Illkirch After an excellent, and beautifully presented, breakfast at the Landgasthof Eiserner Ritter, which made us regret what we’d had for dinner the night before even more, we packed up ready to move on. It was a glorious day, and we had a plan to start by…
2019 Travel – Harewood House, Harewood, Leeds
Saturday, 3rd August 2019 – Harewood House, Harewood, Leeds I’m sure I must have been to Harewood House at some time during my years growing up in Yorkshire, though I have no memory whatsoever of doing so. We had relatives in Leeds, and visited frequently from Hull, but as I say I have no recall…
