The Expedition

TheOneRing

I haven't been in Strasbourg for years and I haven't go to a geohash in this graticule yet, so this was the perfect opportunity.

In the mornig I went to my office, did some routine work and asked then my boss, if something important was to do. Nope, nothing, so I took a day off, and went by train to Strasbourg (from Berne only 2.5h via Basel, quite comfortable). Unfortunately, the weather was foggy but it did not rain. From the train station it was only 1.6 km (as the dragon flies) to the geohash, which I walked of course. I took the usual photographs and because the district was not very impressive I walked through the city - to took more photos there.

For lunch I had a Tarte Flambee (for the Germans: Elsässer Flammkuchen), which was really really great. Hereby, I encourage everyone to try one in Alsace. I did not take a photograph of it, because it would be mean to show a photo without beeing able to eat one.

I also visitied the cathedral, had a rest and took some photos. After that I walked through the city to the main station and took a train back to Berne via Basel.
