Strasbourg (not the métro station, either).

Johan was playing at Geneviève's festival in Obernai, but I had a few hours in between the train to Strasbourg and the train to Obernai ... Time to go exploring! The nice lady at the tourism desk sent me to the "Vieille France" quarter, which she said was very typical of the region. Typical or not, it was adorable.


Lots of canals ...


And pretty buildings!


Oh, hey fairy tale illustration. Wasn't expecting to see you here.


What good is a fairy tale illustration without the, *ahem,* Princess?


The one blight on the landscape is this bubble. This bubble contains the train station. Weirder still, this bubble contains a typical old French, BEAUTIFUL, stone station. WHAT IS UP WITH THE BUBBLE?

Architectural fail.


This is the poolside view from the house we stayed in during our time in Obernai. No big deal.



The family we stayed with was super nice, and I was totally content to spend all day soaking up some sun for  basically the first time this summer.


I still don't have a tan though. Womp womp.
